A house partially obscured by snow-covered trees. The house may be associated with the Clapshaw Family who lived in the Hillside neighborhood northwest of Forest Grove, Oregon.

A wintry scene showing a barn, fences and a lean-to in a snow-covered field, with trees in the distance. The edge of a house (possibly the same house that appears in image PUA_MS154_002) appears in the background, mostly obscured by trees. This property may be associated with the Clapshaw Family who lived in the Hillside neighborhood northwest of Forest Grove, Oregon. The photograph was taken by William Alonso Clapshaw, probably circa 1910-1914. Flaws in the photograph are due to dust and deterioration of the emulsion layer on the negative.
A portrait of a family posed outside a modest home near Forest Grove, Oregon; possibly in or near Hillside, Gales Creek or Banks. They may be friends or neighbors of the photographer, William Alonso Clapshaw. The parents wear work clothes, with the mother in a practical striped dress and the father wearing work pants, boots, an old shirt and suspenders. The children are seated bareback on two horses, with the son in short pants and bare feet, and the daughter in a dress with tights and shoes. A dog, possibly a border collie mix, lies behind them. Their one-and-a-half story house is rustic in appearance with unpainted wood siding and plain trim. What appear to be two old tractor seats flank the door. A low hill rises behind the house. Several outbuildings, including possibly an outhouse, appear in the background. Clapshaw made the photograph by exposing half of the glass plate negative; he never exposed the other half, resulting in a blank section above this image. Flaws in the photograph are due to deterioration of the emulsion layer on the negative.
A farmhouse and barn in Hayward, Oregon circa 1910-1914. As of the 2020s, the house is still standing at the address 53363 NW Hayward Road, Banks, Oregon. In this image, a sign for "Hayward Farm" is displayed prominently on the barn. A windmill, fences, various outbuildings, and a large field appear around the house, while a tall, thick forest of Douglas Fir lies in the background. Hayward is a small community in the Coast Range about 6 miles WNW of Banks, Oregon. This photograph was taken by amateur photographer William Alonso Clapshaw, possibly from a vantage point in Hayward Cemetery. Clapshaw exposed half of a glass plate negative to create this image. The other half of the glass plate was used to make a portrait of a child; see image PUA_MS154_007b. Flaws in the photograph are due to dust and deterioration of the emulsion layer on the negative.

This photograph was probably taken around 1910-1914 near Forest Grove, Oregon; possibly near the Hillside or Banks neighborhoods. The photographer, William Alonso Clapshaw, exposed half of a glass plate negative to create this image. The other half of the glass plate was used to make another photograph; see image PUA_MS154_011a. Flaws in the photograph are due to dust and deterioration of the emulsion layer on the negative.

The other half of the glass plate was used to make another photograph of a barn that may have been on the same property; see image PUA_MS154_027b. Flaws in the photograph are due to dust and deterioration of the emulsion layer on the negative.
A small house, probably in the forested hills of the Coast Range northwest of Forest Grove, Oregon; possibly near Hillside, Gales Creek or Hayward. The house is a very modest structure, probably consisting of just one or two rooms, with a pyramidal hip roof. A man, a boy and a horse stand on the left. A shed or small barn stands behind the house, and another small but tall-roofed outbuilding sits to the left. The latter structure might be a smokehouse. The land around the house has been cleared of trees recently, with many stumps and ferns still present in the foreground. An old wood plank sidewalk is also visible. The forested hill in the background looks like it may have been burned, with dead snags left standing. All of the structures including the fences appear to have been built recently before the photograph was taken. Flaws in the photograph are due to dust and deterioration of the emulsion layer on the negative.
