Photo Number 1411

This is a Real Photo Postcard from the antique shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.

There is lots going on in this photo.  Someone is standing in the doorway, rags or something seems to be hanging above the door.  Something is hanging on the outside of the house..a garland?  And what it that contraption on the right side…a washing machine?

Agnes Hoverson /Houerson and Horuer/ Horner family
This is a Cyko postcard that was used from 1904 to the 1920’s.  I would guess that this one is from the 1920’s from the dropped waists of some of the dresses. 
Thanks for stopping by.  Do come again:)

Update from Iggy:
This is a possibility.
I found an Agnes Hoverson born in Inkster, Grand Forks, North Dakota May 1899, later found working as a nurse (1921-1923) and living in Minneapolis. She was the daughter of Hover C and Christie Hoverson. I'm not sure since the spelling is so iffy. Likewise, about the "Horner" family, but there is a large one living in Inkster around 1920.

Ages in 1920:

Herbert O Horner 51
Chlio Horner 44
Lyle Horner 20
Luva Horner (Finley) 20
Nina Horner (Garratt) 18
Ruth C Horner (Bang) 16
Fern Horner (Hicks) 14
Verle Horner (Lowe) 9
Dale Horner 2

If this is the family - The littlest one is not in the photo and likely not born yet (making the photo about 1916-18:?
