NEBRASKA - SETTLERS, 1887. A Glimpse into the Frontier Life of Homesteader James Scott and Family
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the late 19th century, offering a fascinating glimpse into the lives of homesteaders in Nebraska. In front of their modest sod house near Westerville, Custer County, we see James Scott and his family proudly posing for the camera. The image captures a true sense of pioneering spirit as they stand amidst the vast expanse of the Great Plains. The rugged landscape serves as a backdrop to this group portrait that showcases both men and women who braved all odds to build a new life on these fertile lands. James Scott stands tall with an air of determination while his wife lovingly cradles their infant child in her arms. Their children playfully surround them, reflecting both innocence and resilience in their eyes. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness not only human presence but also signs of frontier existence – from livestock grazing nearby to a trusty horse tethered close by. A dog faithfully guards its owners while a wagon filled with essential supplies rests nearby. Photographed by Solomon D. Butcher in 1887, this remarkable piece from The Granger Collection serves as an invaluable testament to the courage and fortitude displayed by settlers during America's westward expansion era.
