Photo Number 610

We will look at some Farm photos again, I have a number of them.
Harry Nordstrom Family Dassel MN
A Farm family or a family visiting relatives on a farm and stopping for a photo.  I am not sure what kind of building is behind them ..any reader input is welcome.  This looks like a 1950’s ( Corrected to 1942) photo to me.

Update: This is from Earl the little boy with the camera. 


This is a photo of my dad and Earl 11 years, Jim 9 years Dean 7 years and Marlyn at 5 years. The picture was taken around 1942, about the time our mother passed away. It was taken in the barn door that my dad Harry and uncle Elmer farmed. the farm is south of Dassel Mn. on the east shore of Pigeon lake

Photo Number 609

Here are some more men. This photo is from the Antique Shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.

Four men DL Antiques

The man on the right might be the Grandpa, he is taking charge of the child..holding him still.  One of the men could be the boys father. I think this may be a photo from the late 1940’s.

Photo Number 607

This is a photo from the Antique Shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.

Women and child in the yard DL Antiques

Two women and a child in a yard someplace.  The lady on the left has a beautiful lace inset on the front of her dress and very lacy sleeves.   The other lady needs a little support or a sweater.  These dresses are longer so I will date them sometime in the late 1910’s or early 1920’s.

Photo Number 606

Grant, Pat, Patty, Sonny, Pat's Mother DL Antiques

Line them up for a photo at the lake.  This is a photo from the antique shop in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota.

This photo is marked on the back.

“Grant, Pat, Patty, Sonny and Pat’s Mother”

Most likely it was taken in the 1930’s or the 1940’s.

Photo Number 605

This is another photo from the Antique Shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.  John thinks I am a great customer…and I probably am.

On the Delaware River

This one was marked “On the Delaware River.”  The elderly women are all dressed like my Grandmother used to dress in the late 1940’s and early 1950’s.  A cotton dress with the proper hose and shoes.

Did you notice that this group brought a box of Alka-Selzer?

Photo Number 604

This is a photo from the Antique Shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.

Hebron Study Club DL Antiques

It was marked “Hebron Study Club.”  There are towns called Hebron and a Hebron Church..so it could be either.

I am not sure what is going on in this photo.  There seems to be a likeness of a person with arms outstretched around two of the ladies. 

Hebron Study Club DL Antiques

The ladies seem to be serving some kind of beverage?? This photo is more than likely from the 1940’s or 1950’s.
