Description

Group standing in front of Balanced Rock, Garden of the Gods, Colorado. Photographer Paul Goerke & Son, Manitou, Colorado. It is believed that the photo was taken in 1910-1911 and may be members of the Bridgewater Church of the Brethren. Samuel C. Smucker (1843-1925) is standing in front row with number 4885A written above his head. He is the donor's great-great-grandfather. His wife, Salome Cline Smucker (1842-1914) is standing next to him. They lived in Timberville and then moved to Bridgewater around 1900-1905. This is a scanned image of the original photo.
