Wordless Wednesday: Green’s Lumber Camp

This month I’m sharing a picture from Facebook for Wordless Wednesday. This image is from the Lions David House Heritage Museum. It shows Green’s Lumber camp in Pine Glen, Burnside Township, Centre County about 1906.

The people in the photo are: Mr. Bill Green, Mrs. Bill Green, Lilly (Green) Decker, Elwood Comely, Clyde Hoover, John Green, Burt Beightol, Rube Green, Ira Green.

Clyde Hoover, son of Samuel and Victoria (Walker) Hoover, was my great grandfather. He married Nora Malinda Houdeshell, daughter of George and Lovina (Force) Houdeshell, about two years after this picture was taken. He grew up in Pine Glen. After his marriage, his family lived in Clearfield where he worked as a lumberman. After they moved back to Pine Glen, he also farmed the family property.

Update: Scheduling oops! Guess there’s an extra “wordless wednesday” post on a Monday. That’ll teach me to pay more attention to what I’m doing. ;^)
