Figure 1.-- Here we see a Rodgers Family. They are a young rural family from Cazadero California. It looks like they had their portrait taken on their front porch which means that it would have been done by an itinerate photographer. |

Here we see a Rodgers Family. They are a young rural family from Cazadero California. It looks like they had their portrait taken on their front porch which means that it would have been done by an itinerate photographer. There are two infant children and two young boys who look to be about 5 and 7 years old. Both boys wear blouses or shirt waists with very plain collars. One bit has a small floppy bow. The boys wear rather long kneepants. Note the stockings. One boy has grey or some other light colored stockings. The other boy had striped stockings.
