Mike Chandler and his sister Elizabeth Egbert sent me this picture of Frederick Rachuig on horseback. The text on the right edge says the photographer was located in Gatesville. I presume that's the location although it could be Clifton. The annotation on the back indicates the date is 1897, just 2 years before he died.
Mike and Elizabeth have said he died from complications relating to diabetes. Another brother (Gustoph Adolph Rachuig) died from diabetes in 1932.
