Log Cabin Family



Today's picture shows a group of people in front of a log cabin. The picture was taken in 1903. It looks to be a family, and two additional men. There is snow on the ground, and everyone is dressed for cold weather. The location of the photograph is not recorded.

  1. They make me think of lumber jacks.
    It looks like they are a family of a husband and wife and 4 little kids and maybe two brothers of one of the parents.
    I noticed that the cabin had two doors right next to each other, so that the two other men could go right next door (maybe that is were the word "next door neighbor" comes from) to eat supper or to socialize.

  2. I agree with Dadd; the man on the right looks like the brother of fellow in the center. Mom has that cabin fever 'Calgon Take Me Away' look goin' on.
