Canaday Family, Page One

Mrs. Canaday and baby, Ola, Idaho, October 1939. Photo by Dorothea Lange.

Wife and baby of president of Ola self-help sawmill co-op in doorway of their home. Gem County, Idaho, October 1939, Dorothea Lange.

Dorothea Lange took many photos of the Ola Self-Help Sawmill in the small village of Ola, in 1938. Three years later, Russell Lee, another Farm Security Administration photographer, took more photos. By looking through all of the photos and captions, I was able to determine the last name of this unidentified woman and her baby. I have talked to the woman's granddaughter and learned that both the woman and the baby are still very much alive. More information coming.
