A photo of the farmhouse in Morganville as it must have looked to Ciro, Louisa, Petronilla, and the kids when they moved there from Brooklyn in 1914.

The boys on the wagon are probably Joe, Larry, Cat and my father Gene who would have been 9 years old.
It is very difficult to see, but there are two horses pulling the wagon.
This photo is of Eve standing at the well. Compare this to the 1915 photo above
where I originally thought the structure was the outhouse.
Here is Eve by the grape arbor.
Those of you with an eye for fashion may realize that Eve is wearing a different dress in this photo
than in the others. It's possible they stayed overnight and brought a change of clothing.
Eve and Jim with Frankie by the fruit orchard, perhaps apples or pears.
Eve and Frankie at the water pump.
Eve and Frankie visiting the chickens.
Jim plowing the field.
Jim and Frankie sitting in a farming machine of some sort.
Jim and Frankie sitting in front of a general store. I have no idea where this might be in 1922,
except where Abe Solomon's store was on corner of Tennent and Spring Valley Roads.
