Unknown people from Minnesota, New York, Filtsmeyer, Swenson

These photos were bought at an estate sale in North Branch, MN. We're not sure if all of these photos are from the same family since there is minimal info written on them. 


 This one is labeled grandpa's brother & family. Brought ships into N. Y. harbor. Photo enclosure has Stone Studio 311-52nd ST., Brooklyn, New York on it.





 This on is labeled Victor Swenson below the photo but on the back it is labeled Gust Swenson, Victor Swenson's brother. The photo frame is labeled Erickson Photo Artist St. Paul. See photo below this one- we think they look like the same person, but maybe they were twins? or just looked very similar? Did he go by two names? were the photos labeled incorrectly?
 

 This photo is labeled Gust Swenson. The frame is labeled Shepherd, 27 East Seventh St., St. Paul, MN.



This is labeled Joe Filtsmeyer 1919. We were able to track down who we believe is the correct Joe.
We believe he is this Joe: Joe Filtsmeyer
The photo below this one we think Joe is on the left and possibly brothers of his in the photo with him?
The frame has no marks but the photo is stamped with a Charles H. Collins, St. Paul.



We believe Joe Filtsmeyer is on the left. The frame is labeled Geo. Coan 499 Wabasha, St. Paul, Minn.


 This one is labeled Emanuel. The frame says Algot Anderson, St. Paul.

This one is labeled Sallie. The frame is labeled The Hill Studio, St. Paul, Minn.
