Frida Holm with her daughter Svea, standing in front of a house with number 507. They are posing with another woman and child.

Frida Holm and her children, Svea, in the summer after they arrived in 
       Canada.

I think the photo is taken in Kenora in 1910, but it could be in Sweden in 1909. The house has a chimney in the middle of the roof, a characteristic seen in Sweden, but Swedish houses often have tile roofs and a siding that is vertical while this house has shingles and horizontal siding.

Judy Oberg said it looks like the little house on 6th Avenue South in Kenora that her dad, Harold Samson, was born in. If that is correct, then the other woman in the photo might be Frida’s sister-in-law Maria Holm Samson holding her son Arnold, who was born in June 1909. Otherwise, it could be Frida’s other sister-in-law Anna Holm Carlson and Anna’s daughter Dagmar, who was born in July 1909.


Here is the section of the photo containing the mystery woman and child enhanced to show the woman’s features.

Probably Anna Carlson holding with her daughter Dagmar.
