In 1910 Iron Mountain, Adolph Anderson was 45, born in Sweden (to US 1885), and a pumperman in an iron mine. His wife Anna was 39, also born in Sweden. They had been married for 17 years. Their children were Elmer 15, Mildred 11, Viola 8, Everett 3 and a young daughter 1-1/2 years old. I think this charming picture was probably taken about 1910 when the girls were 8 & 11. I do genealogy research at a NW Indiana museum. I love your site.

Eva - The information you have provided is a perfect example of what actually gives this site its value. Each day on the Pasty Cam we can only start a conversation about this colorful place known as the U.P. The most important thing is where you take it. Thanks for helping us connect with Adolph and his family.
Frank - Better patent that spell checker. It's worth a frotune.
Jeanette - Loved the sleigh ride : o)
