Town Cousins (Unidentified Glass-Plate Image)

No ID on any of these, and the photographer botched the lighting/exposure so badly I had to raise the "Brightness" to make the adults' facial features visible.

But from the differences in dress among the children, I'm just guessing that the town cousins were visiting the country cousins.

[8/14/2017 update] — C.K. Melin has offered a possible IDs for three of these people:
I think some of these are the Carlson family members — possibly Oscar at left, holding the baby, and his wife Beda is one of the 2 ladies at right.

The kid that gave it away for me is that scamp at far right, with the suspenders — now isn't that rascal Harry Carlson, the son of Oscar & Beda?

The women here also show up in your summer picnic photo of "the womenfolk."
