F.J. Biltz & family?
The man at the right seems to be F.J. Biltz - cf. other picture of him. Presumably this is him and part of his family in front of his house (perhaps in Concordia, Missouri). The dark haired woman in the middle might be his daughter, Clara. The other adult woman might be one of his adopted daughters, Bertha or Mollie. The two children might be two of his youngest children.

Nancy Abbott (Ref. 343) says that her mother identified the young girl as Mollie

Perhaps the picture was taken after the death of Biltz' wife in 1891 since she does not appear in it..
