I've added another diagram to the extended family tree. This one covers the initial layer ofJohanna Rachuig Lang's branch of the family. She was the oldest daughter & second child of August & Henrietta Rachuig. She married Otto Lang. Her youngest sister Lydia married Otto's younger brother Richard Lange. (Yes, they spelled their surnames differently.)
Otto & Johanna moved to New Mexico. I understand they were infrequent visitors to Clifton. I've posted pictures of their family in earlier entries on this blog.

These photos have good captions, so I won't add anything to them.
I can't remember which of Johanna and Otto's grand-daughters sent these pictures to me because it was several years ago. (One of them wrote me recently and said Johanna's middle name wasn't Martha. I guess my genealogical records were mistaken.)
The couple in the upper-right picture are Herbert and Bessie Lange. (Herbert was Otto and Johanna's youngest child.) I think they appear again in the unlabeled pictures in the middle-left.
Frieda Elydia Lang was their middle child. (I wonder if my records have her name spelled incorrectly.) Her husband was Alma Lonzo Nail. The group picture in the lower right shows Johanna with her daughter Frieda, daughter-in-law Bessie, and her grand-daughters (Bessie and Herbert's children).
Johanna and Otto's oldest child Accue was killed in combat during WWI.
This is a photo of Herbert Lang, son of Otto and Johanna Rachuig Lang. He was born in 1901 and died in 1980, so this picture was probably taken in the late 1970s. One of his daughters or grand-daughters sent it to me several years ago. I have others of the Lange family which I will post.
