Novella Morrison Cunningham with her daughter and nephews

Vintage farm photo, Brunner Farm

Dale Duerr submitted this photo of life on the farm, taken about 1918, in Guernsey County, near Antrim, Ohio.
In the photo Novella Morrison Cunningham, standing on the stump, is holding her nephew, Richard Morrison. Two other nephews, Ernest and Clancy Morrison, are standing on the horse, Doc. The little girl wearing the hat is Novella’s daughter, Ethel Cunningham, who later moved to Bolivar. Ohio, and married Robert Duerr. She spent the rest of her life on a dairy farm. Ethel Duerr, an avid Farm and Dairy reader, lived to age 100, and passed in April 2013. Dale Duerr is her son.
