I always wonder: who these people are, and what is their story, and what became of them. It is great that photographs are able to capture and preserve a moment in time. I think it
gives the subjects a degree of immortality.

Thank you for sharing these images.

Another sixteen wonderful photos!
Number fifteen (next to last) I sure wish I could get a better look at the car. The rear fenders suggest that the car is a 1915 or 1916, being flat round rear fenders (no crown). An "illusion" caught my eye, making me zoom in for a closer look. Turns out it is a shadow that makes it appear the car has a Ruckstell (nope, no Ruckstell!).
However, zooming in and looking closely, I noticed that the rear end is the earlier late 1912 through 1914 twelve rivet version! Although poor definition in the photograph makes it so that one can't really see the rivets? One can see the axle tube's taper as it nears the center "pumpkin". Having restored a few of that era rear ends, one gets to notice the slightly different shape of the "pumpkin" and lack of steps transitioning from the axle tube to the pumpkin.
So, is the car an early 1915 style runabout with the 1914 style rear end. It is basically known that many of the earliest open 1915s did have the earlier rear ends. Or maybe it is a very late 1914 runabout with the 1915 style rear fenders? I have seen an era photo of a dealer's showroom showing a 1914 style open car with 1915 style rear fenders. So it would seem that a few cars may have been produced that way?
Maybe the fenders or the rear end were changed at some point early in the car's life?
Can't even see the tail lamp or bracket to get a clue.

I would just like to know which year it really is and why the odd (albeit not all that rare) anachronism.

I don't remember seeing the first picture but the boys look familiar.

Hey there Rich E! Yeah, I do remember that photo, the fish, the one boy's stance holding his arms bent. Both boys with the look on their faces like "We done good catching dinner, now you make us stand here getting our picture took?"
I don't know if I have that one on my computer or not? But I do remember it!
The model T is a center-door sedan.

I hope all is well with you!
