Family of Herman Amberg Preus Playing Croquet
A family is gathered in a yard playing croquet. Nearby a child sits on a rocking horse and holds onto a small wagon. Behind that are some women and another child with a baby buggy. The frame house has a railing on its porch roof and latticework in front. This is the Spring Prairie parsonage, home of Herman Amberg Preus, his wife Caroline Keyser Preus and their children. |
