Title: Bill Large homestead and shop pictures
Post by: mark brier on December 09, 2018, 08:35:36 PM
While digging around and looking for something else this morning I came across these pictures and thought I would share. They are of Bill Large's homeplace and shop, the other man in the pictures will Bill is my grandfather T.K. Dawson. The only date I have to go by is when the pictures were printed which says February of '67.

THAT is for sure. I will say the photographer that day was none other than John Baird.
I know it was NOT me.
The building on the left is the shop and the semi obscured one is the house.
Memories,cherished and revived.Thank you mark for posting these pictures
of two of my favorite people on this planet.
