Here is an amazing photo collection from Wilbert Bregar that documented everyday life of a Wyoming girl named Jean Johnson in the early 20th.
“Many of these photos were made in Jean's Kodak Signature camera. Jean was born in 1904 and grew up in Greeley Colorado. She graduated from Greeley High School in 1922. After normal school, she taught in one room schools in Wyoming.
Jean married Dwight Joslin in 1930, raised 3 children: Paul, Betty, and Dorothy (Dottie). She died in 1990 (Cheyenne, WY) at the age of 85.”
