"[ca. 1916] Picnic"

Large group of people, most in white, standing horizontally across the photo in front of a house. Some men are seen in the second floor window looking out. A small group is sitting on the porch to the right. One man is standing in a dark suit in the second floor window to the far left. There is a lone tree in the front yard.
From accompanying materials: This picture I "think" was probably taken about 1910-11 (1916). It was called a "Country Club;" located in what was then called "Cook's Corner," Methuen where East Street ends & Merrimack begins. Also "Russell's Farm" was next to it. My sister, brother and I are on the extreme right - front row.
