This is the Baruch Family in 1925. Uncle Siegfried had married Kaethe Horsten, who brought her daughter Eva with her. That's a very dapper Bari in front.

This is Kurt circa 1926, around the time he got fed up with the family business, and emigrated to America to find success on his own.

Lily at the head of the "bathing beauty" line, vacationing at Wyk, another North Sea resort, 1926. These are her schoolmates. All these vacations and weekend trips were happening while Lily was still going to school in Berlin.

Happy Family Outing, 1927. Some serious womenfolk: Berthe Rehfisch, front row center, Lily rear left, and that appears to be Elsbeth center rear.
