Excellent clear photo showing a family with children standing by a large stack of hand hewed railroad ties. Possibly in Centralia, WA. Cutting wood and ties for the Railroad was how many Lewis County citizens were able to make it through the depression in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Have negative. Have slide.
