Black and white image of a large, Queen Ann style Victorian home. The two storied house is cross-gabled, with a square turret set in the front corner. A covered porch runs around the visible portions of the house, decorated with a white picket railing. Gingerbread ornamentation decorations the peak of each gable section, and runs around the eaves of the porch. Double-hung, paned windows with shutters decorate all visible facades, and the turret is capped with a tall, pyramidal roof. Two men stand in front of the house, wearing suits and hats, and a small outbuilding is visible just behind the house. The yard is bare mud, with bare saplings planted in a straight row out from the porch stairs. The hillside behind the house is bare to the ridge, where heavy pine forest takes over.
Black and white image of a large, cross-gabled wooden house with two extensions. A number of people stand in the yard before the house, three men, four women, and two boys. The men stand along the left side of the house and wear dark suits and are bareheaded. An elderly woman sits on a chair in front of the leftmost man; she wears a light colored skirt and a dark jacket and her hair is up.
