Out for a ride

This wonderful photo is only one of a few in Mary’s collection that isn’t identified on the back.  George Schenk may be the man in the photo driving the wagon and Mary is on his immediate left.  The other adult woman in the wagon may be Mary’s mother, Eva.  I am unable to positively identify any of the children; however, George and Mary had 4 children between 1901 and 1909 – and these could be their children.  If I have correctly identified Eva and the children, then this photo would have been taken about 1911.
