My grandmother, Hattie Lewis (later Burns) born in 1889, died in 1974, told me about making a trip from Roane County, TN to Texas in a covered wagon as a child.

This is really cool, it gives me some insight into several of my GG Grands, who did travel the Oregon Trail in the early to mid-1800s with their families. (1845 to mid 1850s) They helped to settle the Willamette Valley. I have an early map image of their homestead farms, in Marion County, along the Pudding River, in my family tree.

Kinda hard to know what the date is. It could be a wagon train, or just some guys out hunting.

My mother was born in 1914. She was 1 of 14 children. I have a picture of her mother 1900ish, possibly. She was dressed right out of a scene from Little House on the Prairie, bouffant hairstyle & she had a group of about 7-8 children with her, they were her little children, my aunts & uncles. I never met her but my mother told me they traveled from Nebraska to California in the early to mid 1800's to settle in Salinas, California. In there somewhere is the family name of Pike. One of my very distant relatives (mother's side) named Pike had Pike's Peak named after them. I can't say what era this would be from but it reminded me of all of this. The old time pictures are great!!!!!

My grandparents moved from Kansas to Oklahoma via covered wagon in 1910. I am sure many were still around. My aunts and uncles as kids would fight in the winter over who would get to sleep under the wagon cover!.

Not a lot to go on in this picture. There is an oil lantern hanging on the wagon above the front wheel. The latter part of the 19th century saw quite a variety of oil lanterns, many quite distinctive. If you can match up the lantern in the picture with a known model, at least you will know it is dated after that model went into production.

John Sikorski could have info on that lantern

My widowed great great grandmother left Louisville after the Civil War, headed out in a covered wagon on the Oregon Trail but turned back with several others after an Indian attack. She was in Brooklyn in 1870, so all that had to have been between 1866 and 1869. I would say the picture dates from the same time period. Look at the hats.

1880s-1890s? I have a similar one at home with my great-great grandfather and one of his sons and brothers in the picture with mules and the wagons etc....the one that I have was taken probably about 1910-1915 though....on a side note, some of my ancestors from around the Lexington/Tyro, NC area used to build the Conestoga wagons for a while (starting in the early 1800s).

Reading all the comments---looks like late 1800's, or early 1900"s. ISince they are all men. Kinda hard to say what they are doing.

This is the one that I have here at home. The man on the mule to the left is my Great-Great Grandfather (Samuel), and the boy on the mule with him is his oldest son. And unless I am mistaken, I think the man standing (the 3rd person from the left) is one of my great-great grandfather's brothers, Philip. Again, I think this was taken around 1910-1915.

I wish i could see their shoes did you know up to the civil war shoes were made uni there was no left or right shoe. the war changed that at the end of and after the war shoes began to be made with a left and a right shoe. it really helps date things. maybe if you showed it to someone who knows their horse tack they can date it by the style of the tack on the horse.
