Recently got these 2 pictures through a genealogy contact.
If provenance on these is right, would have been on the farm of a Maternal g-g-grandfather. Some bachelor sons would have been farming it when these photos taken most likely as the old man would have been around 80 I think. Likely dates to around WW1 era.
Location would be Renville Co, Minnesota.
I think the tractor in front of the thresher is not a steam tractor? Don't see a stack on it.
The 2nd one I think has a steam tractor on the belt. Car appears to be a model T and sort of a beat up one at that. Kids were probably told to stay in the car and out of the way!
