Halle Steensland Home

Image

The Halle Steensland home, an impressive two-story brick house in Maple Bluff, with five family members posed along the front porches. It is possible this photograph was taken in connection with the completion of the house's new right wing. The house and farm was purchased by Senator Robert M. La Follette, Sr., and it is more commonly known today in association with the La Follette name.
