My family identifies this as the
Ladies Aid. According to the publication Lajord, 1905-1955, perhaps this
should be the Union Ladies Aid, which was organized in 1910. The woman in
the middle of the picture with the coiled buns over her ears is my Aunt
Esther (Hesla) Hanson. She is in profile, with the flowered collar and
cuffs, above the lady who is seated and smiling at the camera with the big
striped sleeves. The older woman standing in front of her, squinting into
the camera, is, I believe, my ggrandmother Olava (Torson) Hesla -her mother
and an original settler.
