Georgie Baldwin. According to the Family Record (which says born August 15, 1903) he has just been working nearly a year in the Merrimack Mfg. Mills. When his father read me the dates from their Family Record he raised the ages (making the boy twelve now), but I saw the dates myself and got it straight. The father is rather old and seems to be ailing. See Hine report. Location: Huntsville, Alabama.

The image is an old black and white photograph of a young boy standing in front of what appears to be the entrance to a wooden structure. He wears a suit with overalls, which are stained and dirty, suggesting that he may have been working or living outdoors. His expression is serious as he looks directly at the camera. The setting seems rustic, possibly rural, and there's visible debris on the ground around him.

Families of Henry and John Miller: boy of eleven years, girl of eleven and girl of thirteen, hoeing the sugar beets. They have 80 acres in beets, come out here from the town in May and go back late in November. One of the families has been here for five years and owns its home. See Hine Report, Colorado. Beet Workers, July, 1915. Location: Colorado

The image depicts a group of six individuals engaged in agricultural work, specifically hoeing sugar beets on an open field. The black and white photograph captures the scene with a vintage feel, suggesting it may have been taken many years ago. Each person is wearing hats or caps for sun protection, as well as long-sleeved shirts and pants to protect their skin from the harsh outdoor conditions. Some individuals are also wearing overalls, which were common in agricultural work during that era. The group appears diverse, with varying ages including children who seem capable of performing physical labor typical of early 20th-century rural America. The expressions on their faces reflect focus and determination as they perform their tasks diligently across the field. The photograph is part of a collection by Lewis Hine titled "Families," which documents various aspects of American life in different states during that period, including child workers engaged in labor such as haying or working with beets. The image provides insight into how young people were involved in agricultural work at an early age and the role these families played in maintaining their livelihoods. The photograph is available on a website for historical purposes; however, it's essential to consider any cultural sensitivity when interpreting images from past decades that involve children engaged in strenuous labor.

A dilapidated "renters" home near West. The Tripp farm. Five in the family. Girl (apparently fifteen years old) is married. The farm contains a hundred and fifty acres now. A larger farm of eight hundred acres was cut up into this and three others - to rent. See Hine report. Location: West, Texas.

A sepia-toned photograph depicting a rural scene with three individuals standing in front of an old, weather-worn wooden house. The structure appears to be partially constructed or under maintenance as some sections are missing walls and the roof is incomplete. A large metal implement stands beside the building on its left side while various tools can be seen scattered around. Three people stand near the porch: two women wearing long dresses with bonnets, a man in work attire, all seemingly engaged in conversation. The environment looks desolate aside from their presence; there's an expanse of barren field and no other structures or objects visible within close proximity. The historical context indicates this photo is part of Lewis Hine's collection documenting the lives of rural workers during early 20th century America, specifically mentioning a 'renters' home near West Texas owned by Tripp farm. The family living there consists of five members with information about marital status and land ownership included in report references like "Hine Report" seen on provided URL. The photograph is marked as part of Lewis Hine's collection which implies its relevance to social documentary photography, particularly during the early 1900s when such photographs were often used for advocacy purposes.

This sepia-toned photograph shows a young boy standing against an out-of-focus backdrop that suggests the interior of a building. The child is wearing work clothes, including a plaid shirt with suspenders and dark trousers adorned by paint splatters or stains on their knees, indicating labor-intensive activities. He has on a flat-brimmed hat that appears to be worn more for practicality than fashion during this period. In his right hand, he holds what seems like the handle of an implement, possibly related to some manual work often found in textile mills during late 19th and early 20th centuries. His facial expression is solemn; there's a noticeable frown or furrow between his brows that could indicate fatigue, worry, or concentration. The photograph appears aged with signs like creases and discoloration typical of vintage photos. The image provides historical context regarding child labor during the industrial age in America. It captures an everyday moment from Columbus, Georgia, as noted by George Clendenon's address on Waverly Street mentioned alongside this photo.
