Update from Joe Lowry:
Ramona Moffett was born about 1916 in Minnesota. In 1930, she was living in Glenwood, Pope, Minnesota with her parents Walter (age 61, born in Wisconsin) and Jessie (age 45, Iowa born). Her younger brother Walter was 9 (also born in Iowa).

Update from Iggy:

This is the name on the back.  Mrs Aaserude.   Mrs. Aaserude might be in the photo or the photo may have been meant for her.

I will guess that this photo was taken around 1920.
