Description
The boarders at Reed's Boarding House all gather outside for a group portrait in 1904. Current residents run the gamut from individuals to families with young children. Boarding houses were popular during this time period, especially for those seeking a job. They would move around from town to town, staying at boarding houses, until they found employment.
