Old Countryside Images

Gathering plowed up potatoes

 

Be it ever so humble, there was no place like home. (about the 1st 6 yr. of my life)

 

@Hugh Manely:

Great picture, Hugh.

 

Barn raising, Amish country



This picture reminded me of the movie Witness. (Harrison Ford, Kelly McGillis, 1985). Good movie.

 

Farmers bringing their cotton to a gin in Madison, Georgia, 1909

 

No doubt this was filmed in either England or Australia. What say you @Patsy Faye.

 

A horse-drawn wagon with hay being forked into a baler driven by a steam portable engine from its flywheel. circa: South Australia 1902.

 

Child labor England 1800s.

 

The pictures are in England
Can't see the child labor image above Craig …..

 

Craig, it looks like these kids are picking cotton. I believe the picture was taken in Texas, 1912, photo by Lewis Hine.
