Been going thru a bunch of old pictures I picked up at my parents' place earlier this year. This one is my Grandparents with their 4 boys two of them were twins, not identical. My dad is being held by his dad, picture was taken apprx 1929 because dad was born in August of 1928.

Nice shot! Our house is nearly identical design, from 1927. You sent me searching for a photo on the computer- one hour gone...
 
We went through all of our old pictures and wrote names on the back so our kids will know who they are when they clean house after we are gone. Most of them were gone before our kids were born so the kids would not have any other way to identify who is in the picture.
 
Dick that is a good thing to do. I have a BIG box of my maternal Grand Mother's family pictures that no one know who 80% of the people are in the photos. Some are clear back to the Civil war as there are fellows pictured in their Union uniforms.
 
John B. are you the one that has in the past posted old photos from your collection? I had saved many of those old farm photos. My computer hard drive crashed and was unable save any pictures. I always enjoy old family and farm pictures everyone post, my family almost never took pictures.

Good grief - everyone should back up their photos and important documents to the cloud. Google Plus will GIVE you a lot of space FREE if you will just use it.

Yep that's what I was thinking. They sold a lot of those over in ND. My daughter and her husband lived in one before they moved to IA.
