Home built by Arch and Jerry
|
I don't know all the people in the picture. This is the house that Arch and Jerry built. Arch used building techniques that he had learned while serving in the Union Army Pontoon Division during the Civil War. There were lifts installed in the house to move things from floor to floor. I know that the boy at the far right with his dog is Jerry Laney. He was about 10 years old here in about 1906. I'm unsure if the man with his shoulder is his dad, Arch Laney, in fact I do not know the other people in the picture. But it is a great old picture. Submitted in by: Anita Stufflebeam |
