Photo of the day

Judging by the apparent ages of the kids (Can you identify them all without looking at the Buller Family Record?), the year was 1942. Presumably the photograph was taken on the Lushton farm, but it is not clear exactly where.

There appears to be a windmill and corn crib in the background on their left, which would lead one to think of the corn crib marked number 7 in the aerial photograph here. If so, the photograph needs to be flipped horizontally, as below, since it seems one of the chicken coops is on the “wrong” side of the picture.

Still, it is not absolutely certain from the aerial photograph that there was a windmill in front of the corn crib. Could this be in front of the feed bin (number 4 in the aerial photograph)? I welcome any clarifications from those who actually know.

Time permitting, the next installment of Ruth’s Story will be posted tomorrow, to be followed at some point by another photograph of the entire family and then one of just Grandpa and Grandma.
