    Some with photo ID and handwriting

    I was hoping some members might help with some photos. They are nothing spectacular, but often I find random photos that I can't help wanting to know more about. The first photo shows an ornately tiled church roof, it appears to have a shield, can the town being identified by this.

    The other two have some hand writing which I am struggling with though appears to be in French rather than German. Can anyone translate the handwriting ( if they can read it! ) Any help appreciated.

              I think this says:
              " (To) My beloved 'Perliman Zinn' ? (definetly a name, but I don't know)
              in fond remembrance from your Brother Hans: July, 1940"

                Hello,

                The last text says:

                "Meinen lieben Paulemann zum Andenken von deinen lieben ... (don't think it's Bruder) Hans. Juli 1940"

                which means "(To) my beloved Paulemann as a remembrance from your dear brother (? I would rather say "lover" with al those "liebe" ...) Hans. July 1940"

                    Thanks guys for all your help they might not be the most impressive photos but I find them fascinating, I has suspected that the first translation was from a young lady, but to be honest I am not sure Yvette does love him alone
                    So the second translation tells us that Hans sent an unhappy picture of himself to his brother Paulemann.

                      I do have one more photo which I had meant to ask for help on before, I find it interesting because the RAD member looks like he has toiled in the summer sun. At first I thought it might be his wife and child standing beside him, but then the closer I looked at his wife the more I thought ( hoped! ) that she was his sister as they possess very similar looking faces. Does the writing on the back cast any light?

                          I'd say these are his two daughters.

                          I'm sorry but my German/Sutterlin is too bad for that last one.

                            Thanks for your help, hopefully someone can read the handwriting.
