This video is in 4K and a lot of the photos are in very high resolution, so switch over to 4K if you have it!
I grew up watching 'Little House on the Prairie' and have read all of the books countless times! Recently, doing genealogical research, my sister discovered that Laura and her sisters are our 7th cousins! We are related through Ma's side of the family. Thank you for sharing these wonderful pictures!
Wow how cool is that!
Thats freaking awesome…i also watched the series and read the books. I wonder why Laura’s pictures weren’t shown here.
Can you show proof by doing a video
@@ladybug8495 l bet you're fun at parties.
@@hensonlaura I'm considered a loser at parties
Couldn’t help but notice that the picture of “Pa” was hanging on the wall of the living room above “Ma” sitting in her chair. Very nice video of a family that has meant a lot to a lot of people😊
Yes, those were the days when
courage, hard work and resilience (word which did not even exist then) and above all love in the family. These days are things of the past. What a shame.....
@@jacquelinedavidson6334 There are still a lot of hard working loving family out here. We cherish what we have. Please don’t generalize people.
Thank you for noticing that! I went back in the video to see that. Lovely!
She was generalizing society and she was right.
Pero eso es en la ficción, la realidad de la familia era distinta.
Watching The Little House on the Prairie series as a child, and reading all the books, is one of the most fondest memories I have of my childhood.
Me too ❤️
Me too. I remember where the books were located in our town library. I was always in the library. I loved the series as well. I catch it once in a while
I read the book series often, and bought it for my grandchildren to read at the cottage. I often find myself reading it again.
I still watch the series. Have for many, many years. I always imagined they were my family & that I grew up in Walnut Grove. Interestingly, I’ve watched it so much, they feel like my family:)
Such greaT stories!!
If you’ve never been to Laura and Almanzo’s home in Missouri you should! The museum holds so many treasures from her entire family and many things mentioned in the books.
I've been there twice and would go again!
We have the Farmer Boy home here in New York. That's Almanzo's childhood home.
Missouri? Geez they sure did live a lot of places for a family of that era.
It's on my bucket list!
I've never been to their home in Mansfield, MO, but I've been to De Smet, SD, and seen all the sites related to the family there.
I am incredibly surprised to accidentally come across this video, as i was in the middle of searching for something else entirely different! Laura Ingalls Wilder is my relative (cousins)! Something my family learned only a few years ago, via following the line from another relative! Thank you much for putting this together !
You're welcome! Glad you found it.
Very cool
I have ancestry going back hundreds of years upstate as well and havent found a link yet, but my friend has an Ingalls in his tree so maybe he’s related.
@@Kristinapedia That's interesting . My best friend is a distant cousin to Abraham Lincoln. My sister has been doing research and we may be related to Teddy Roosevelt's first wife,Alice. Which would suit me just fine cause I'm a Roosevelt fan,LOL
@@Kristinapedia we all have ancestry going back hundreds of years. smh
I'm Indonesian. I watched this serial when I was child, and I read all the books. Little House on the Prairie is Legend
When Laura Ingals started writing books detailing her recollections of childhood and family she surely could not have envisaged that her Pa, Ma sisters and brothers would be remembered with so much love by tens of millions of people all over the world.
What on earth would Charles & Caroline have made of it all?
Right. They'll never know how interesting their lives are to so many.
@@HistoryBUB oh, now, they might!
Almanzo was seriously good looking!
I thought Grace's husband was sexy. Complete with a 1970's porn-stach!
What a life they lived. Grewing up in rough times, horses and wagons in the wild west to cars and airplanes, radio and tv. A great time to live. all that they seen and done just blows my mind.
...to put that into perspective... Laura Ingles died in 1957. The C-130 & the B-52 first flew in 1954 and 1955 respectfully, and they are still flying today.
Wouldnt call it a good time to live little to eat little space to live cold winters hot summers indian attacks civil war less work greedy people trying to steel youre land slavery and poor people wher is ther a good time to live?
@@LieorDie24 Thats not what i said
@@bikernu Why is everyone so crabby in this thread?
Is still there such life living people?
What a wonderful collection you have put together!
Thank you kindly!
Photos were rare and life was generally hard. They were prob very proud of these photos.
Rose got her parents best features I think.
You're right about that. Photos were treasures in those days.
I agree - Rose looked like a sweetie. Carrie looked like a sour puss! Lol.
Now that you mention it, she does look very serious in her photos lol.
I have always watched Little House on the Prairie as a girl after school because it's what my dad and his sister (my aunt) did back in the day. I really want to pass down this AMAZING and wholesome show to my kids as well; hopefully they can appreciate it the same way I have. Great video! It blows me away seeing the real people behind the characters I grew up watching. Even now, I'm probably on my 100th watch-through of LHOP! Season 2 currently!
Thanks! I've seen it many times too. Just takes you out of reality for a while. 4 PM on TBS when I was a kid! 😅
They will. My husband and I watch LHOTP with our children. I love the history in the stories, as well.
Everyone who has lived on this Earth was young once. Always loved the show and books but it’s nice to see what the characters really looked like in their youth. Rose was a cutie.
Rose seemed to be the only one who had a pleasant look about her.
That's how I feel when I find a picture of an ancestor I've never seen. I look at it over and over again for months lol.
@@momstermom2939 Rose wrote a wonderful autobiography. She traveled the world (was totally in love with Romania as I recall) and was a journalist. Her writings are really great. Of course she re-wrote all of Laura's memories so they could be published. Laura was a very dull writer. Her newspaper column was incredibly dull as were her memories of her life. Rose got ahold of them and made them come alive.
Loved watching Little house on the prairie when I was growing up. Still watch it every chance I get on me tv. Undoubtedly a good wholesome television show based on a real family. Seeing them in picture is awesome. Thank you for sharing. .
I love seeing these pictures of the Ingallls!! Thank you for posting!!!
This is so cool! If anyone is interested, the book “Pioneer Girl” has pictures of others from the Little House books, and updates on them. But this is awesome! I’ve not seen other photos from later in life for a lot of these.
Thanks! I have a lot of photos of the extended families of Almanzo, Charles, and Caroline, I just didn't want to pack too much in each video. I may do another one for them.
@@HistoryBUB These are really fantastic. I’ve been a fan for 50 years, and haven’t seen most of these. 👍👍👍👍
Almonzo was a very handsome man. Like...wow.
He picked a very pretty woman to marry, and their daughter was beautiful.
I was going to say the same thing. Almonzo was a very good looking man.
He was "manly". Lol.
The only good looking one in the bunch.
Take it easy. You're feeling too hot right now. You're about ready to jump out of your clothes. This is a family forum not an adult video site. Take a nap or have a shot of Jack Daniels if you're feeling too uptight or if your temperature is up. 🔥
Thank you for posting this great album. I was so excited, many years ago, to visit Laura and Manly's home in Missouri. I think it was called Rocky Top. But, I stood in her kitchen and looked out the two little windows over her sink and saw what she might have seen. Went into her little library, which was the first of it's kind. Just absorbed all the bits of her house and property and heard all about how Manly invented many little comfort things for her such as running water from their own water tower. We were not allowed upstairs due to the age of the house. Across the street they had a little shop where you could buy mementos of the visit. I bought a pattern Laura made to applique a quilt with elegant ladies in big hats. I never made that quilt, but dreamed a lot about it. Oh, I saw the little sampler she had worked on learning her stitches. Blood and all were still on that piece of cloth just like she described in her book. I really enjoyed that visit. Mostly, I am so glad Rose took Laura's writings and made them come alive. Laura was not an imaginative writer and her books would have never been published, IMHO, because she just put down facts. Rose made those stories live and as a result millions of readers and tv watchers have been able to vicariously experience life of earlier America.
Have you read any of Laura's work in the Missouri Ruralist that she wrote for for years? A lot of what you talked about seeing is described in great detail.
It's called Rocky Ridge Farm. I've been there too. Went at age forty after wanting to go since age eight. It did not disappoint. My children and I had all read the book series in our elementary school years so the trip to Mansfield, Mo...The Land of the Big Red Apple as Laura referred to it... and Rocky Ridge Farm was a bucket list trip for us. Seeing Pa's fiddle there, under glass, was the biggest thrill for all three of us. I was literally a kid again. It was awesome.
That was lovely. Several pictures I had not seen before. Thank you.
You're very welcome.
None of us can imagine how difficult life was during those times.
That's for sure. When the power goes off for an hour, we start to worry in this day and age. I couldn't imagine their struggles.
I remember Laura writing that Carrie wasn't recovering from the Long Winter. Carrie was really thin in these pictures.
I grew up in the sixties 10 miles from Walnut Grove in South Dakota on a farm, and went to a one room school house. We had no running water. After a blizzard we were on our own for the next two weeks. What do you mean none of us can imagine?
@@pinkiesue849 Also, the shuffled chronology in Laura's early books means that Carrie probably had not really been born yet in Big Woods and (at least most of) Prairie, so Ma may have been heavily pregnant with her while they were all close to death of (Laura later thought) malaria. That might go a long way toward explaining why Carrie's health was always more fragile than that of her three sisters.
Yeah life for native American people was a real nightmare when the illegal occupiers came and slaughtered them
I’m reading “Prairie Fires” which gives historical background to the books & also the relationships between family members from letters. It also delves into Laura & Rose’s personal lives and their published works. Very enlightening. There are reasons why the Little House books are considered Fiction…
I'll look into it. Thanks.
I own this book, and it is enlightening. But, I found some of it depressing in the fact that it destroyed a lot of the feel-good emotions that I really wanted to hang on to. i.e. The real story of Jack, the bulldog. I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't read Prairie Fires.
The series of books that Laura ingalls Wilder wrote were meant for children so yes she kind of glossed over the bad stuff and simplified it to a point where it was from a child's point of view so it didn't dive into the seriousness of real life but a lot of the events are based on actual events they are just glossed over for children and a lot of things were left out
@@shanemcguire5347 Thank you for understanding the needs of children, Shane. Thank you for pointing out that these are children’s books.
@@deboraholsen2504 your welcome but there is also a book of her biography thats not glossed over for children that really gets into the realities of her life and the events
She never knew how many of us woman as little girls lived through her life in her books❤
These photos have an eerie haunting vibe. And in 100 plus years from now, our photos will probably have an eerie haunting vibe to that generation who sees us in very old pictures 🧐👻
I felt the same and the music very eerie. I love it!
And they'll be making fun of our clothes and hair in 100 years. 😂
100 years from now if people see our photos they’ll be shocked at the ludicrous way we behaved in photos.
They won't see any photos. Everyone has them on their phones.
I still watch my show on TV. I bought the whole seasons of LHOTP it's my show growing up love it thank you so much for sharing these photos
I grew up watching little house on the prairie and having the books read to me before I could read them myself we had the whole series 💕
I was adopted at birth and never knew who my family was.... took a DNA test a few years back and last year I found out that they are my cousins on one of my great grandfathers side I thought that was so cool 💖
thanks so much for posting this ❤️💕❤️
Cool story. I can't wait to do my DNA. You're welcome!
Wow I’m loving everything you put on about the Ingalls family. So keep it up!!
Thanks. I will!
It was awesome seeing all these pictures...i am actually related to them! My great great great great great great grandpa's brother was Charles...and my husband was shocked when i showed him Rose's picture as a little girl...i resembled her when i was that age!
Do you do Family History research? Which brother is your grandpa?
That would make him your great great great great great great great Uncle Charles.
Which brother?
Francine Lambert: I don’t understand how you can have 6 “great”s in your grandpa’s line? How old are you and did all of your ancestors marry very young? My great grandfather was born in 1850 and that’s only 14 years after Charles Ingalls!
@@terrywade3696 I was wondering the same thing.
So nice to see the real family of the little house. I used to watch it every friday and go back to work with reddened eyes which made my colleagues laugh !
But it is truly a sad story as there are no descendants. Laura was the only girl of the family to have children. It seems there is a sort of malediction concerning the male branch. Pa and Ma had a boy after Laura and he died in infancy (she doesn't mention it in her books).
Same for Laura herself whose baby boy died so early he didn't have a name. And same again for Rose Wilder who lost her only child, a boy who died in infancy.
The other girls had no children of their own. Mary never married and lived first with her parents and then with her sisters Carrie and Grace who both married widowers who had already children. So that is the end of the story.
Yes, it's sad. Nobody to carry on the line, but the name lives on with the Ingalls brothers' children. I love the show too and have come close to tears a few times lol.
@@HistoryBUB I think same here for the Quiner children themselves
Rose & her husband did adopt a girl, tho.
Little Freddy was actually born after Carrie
I think the Wilder's gave up on having more children after losing their son. Laura was terribly heartbroken, & very rarely spoke of it afterward, even to her daughter. Rose's son was born premature & stillborn, she had surgery shortly after, for "complications", & it's thought this made her unable to bear any more children. She grew apart from her husband, they divorced some years later, & she never remarried. Carrie suffered from fragile health most of her life, & was likely advised not to risk childbirth. In her thirties, she married a widower with two young children, who they raised together. Grace may have been advised not to have children as well. Childbearing was risky enough in the time & place, but Laura, Carrie, & Grace all suffered from diabetes, & the two together considerably raised the risk of death from maternal stress.
Loved seeing the real Ingalls family that Michael Landon, Melissa Gilbert and the others potraited in The Little House On The Prairie! It was one of my very favorite shows on tv.
Same here. One of the best of the 70s/80s.
Yes indeed 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾😀
Mine too
Where can I see the show?
@@dariussimule It's still on during the week.
This is fun seeing the real people. Rose Wilder Lane looked strikingly Maggie Gyllenhaal in some of those photos.
Yes, she does look like Maggie. Others have said she looks like another star, but can't remember who now.
Almanzo was very handsome as a young man, and Rose was lovely! I understand why almost nobody smiled in those old pictures, but I am sure a smile would bring a lot to them.
I’ve read that people back then thought that smiling in photos was immature and strange.
Rose wrote that in the photo of her as a little girl, she wanted to position her hands to show a ring she was wearing and the photographer kept changing her hands so that the ring didn’t show. She was aggravated about it, but you can see in the picture who won that battle.
Great job! I've studied Laura and her life for much of mine (I'm 47) and I have not seen some of these pictures.
Thanks! It took a while to dig them up. Some I had to really search for.
Thank You for showing these photos. I lived in Brainerd, MN in the 70s and 80s, I’m very proud of it.
You're welcome.
Laura once wrote that she was proud of Rose being a "Gibson Girl." But I see Rose did cut her hair in later years. Thank you for sharing!
Yes, Rose is also very interesting to me. You're welcome!
I've read all her books. I love these pioneer people. So many good stories. Precious lessons. Laura became very special to me.
I totally agree!
Almanzo was so handsome and Rose was gorgeous!
Great line up and the music hauntingly accurate for the time and era. Almost felt like I was going to see myself in one of them. Beautifully done. New subscriber here tonight. 👍❤️
I will never get tired of watching LHOTP 😀👍🏾👍🏾
Same here, but can't get past the parts where some of the regulars left.
I discovered Little House on the Prairie when I was in 6th grade. I read all of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s books. All were fantastic! I have given the set to my granddaughter and niece. It’s great to see what they all looked like!
Yes, it's amazing to see these old photos.
I am 76 & still watch the series every day. 🥰🥰
I really enjoyed these photos, I am a huge of everything Little House. I was surprised to see a picture of Ma with her hair pulled back behind her ears, in the books she said she always made a point of covering her ears with her hair. 😁
I love the story about the Ingalls I still watch it to this day and as long as I'm alive and it's on I will watch it thank you all for the memories of this beautiful tale of a story
You're welcome! If I'm flipping through channels, I always stop when I see it lol.
Lots of pics I’d never seen before! And trust me, that’s saying a lot for this Ingalls junkie. Well done!
Thanks. I looked for a very long time. Some I knew existed, but couldn't find from my usual sources. I finally found them in archives not indexed.
Loved seeing these! Especially Carrie and Grace…I had not seen a lot of those!
Bellissime foto..! Che bei ricordi..! Bellissimo video..!♥️♥️
Such a cool video. Thank you for posting
Thanks to Laura we got to know the whole family. I loved that show.
Really cool photos. Thanks for sharing!
My 5th grade teacher was very much into pioneer ways. She taught the class how to spin wool and dye yarn, as well as crocheting. she used to do water color painting as well. she taught us Christmas carols in German for the Christmas pageant. The class crocheted pillows for Christmas presents ( I still have mine). On Friday afternoons she would read the "Little House" books while we worked on our pillows. I credit Laura Ingalls Wilder and my 5th grade teacher with starting my life long love of history and learning. Thank you Mrs. Wilder and Ms. Hunrath!
I love little house on the prairie. I read all Laura's books. What a fascinating life she had. I love real history!
The next reads are those based on real people and real circumstances
I reckon if Little house was on today with the unlimited choice of channels Little House would have been overlooked due to unlimited channels it would be like looking for a bubble in a sea of bubbles
HistoryBub Many thanks for these priceless pictures of the Ingalls and Wilder family. All of the Ingalls family were diabetic except Ma. I have this disease and cannot imagine how they did so much work and traveling without insulin. I think Grace made a beautiful bride, Rose was the rebel and Almanzo very handsome. None of the Ingalls women could give birth to a male son and have it live a normal life. Rose had a stillborn male and I read where she became addicted to her post operative pain medication. Indeed a hard life was never a stranger to these families.
You're welcome! I never knew about Rose being addicted, but I know it was a problem long before our generation. I'll have to read up on it. There is still a lot I don't know about Rose's later life.
@@HistoryBUB There was talk of Rose being a lesbian. She did divorce her husband and spent most of her time with Troub that is shortened for trouble. She and Rose traveled the world together and when she brought Troub home to Rocky Ridge Laura wasn’t too happy. I believe Troub was an author of a series of books on the life of a student nurse, her real name escapes me. Ok the books Troub wrote was about a nurse named Sue Barton. Troub, her real name was Helen Boylston.
@@Stella-fl2lj I read about this too, but I want to learn more about Rose and her adventures. I've never read any of her works except a compilation of letters to and from Laura. I really want to read "Young Pioneers" this winter while I'm stuck inside.
I can absolutely confirm the addiction and alcoholism issues in my family. As for diabetes, not until our 50s....adult diabetes is what's common. Mom was not diabetic until she was 53....she's 64 now, and still homesteading off grid in Arizona .
I can also confirm vision, hearing, memory, and severe mental health issues in my family as well. These have been very well documented.
My mother is an Ingalls woman by birth.
Also, I am the only son between my mother, Vickie Ingalls, and my late father,
John Hughes.
I have 2 sisters, and 1 half sister.
I am unable to have children.
My sisters do have children.
All boys.
I have 3 nephews.
I am even a great uncle now.
Mom is a great-great grandmother now!
Our family is still alive.
We're not going anywhere.

What a fabulous collection of photos! I would love to know who the other people are in the group photos. So interesting!
Wow! So many pictures I’ve never seen before!
I know, I was shocked when I found some of these in different archives that I had never seen in public.
I watch the series too, have the CD's and the books! It had such a great impact on me growing up, still has today! 🇩🇰🇩🇰
Merci pour avoir mis en ligne cette vidéo dédiée aux familles de Laura ingalls. Les photographies me remémore l époque où régner la reine Victoria
Je vous en prie. L'ère victorienne me fascine aussi.
@@HistoryBUB je vous rejoins 🌸
I’ve never seen most of these pictures. Thank you!
This was wonderful to watch thanks for sharing this.
Thank you for this video❤
Beautiful! Thank You. ~Sharon
Thanks! You're welcome.
Beautiful and nicely done!
Thank you so much 😀
That music is so soothing.
Yes, I like it. It's cool and calm.
I grew up reading Little House on the Prairie books when I was a kid, so sing pictures of the real People is really awesome. By the way, Rose was very beautiful. She seems like the sassy one in the family. 😁
Fascinating! I've never known what they really looked like until now.
Thank you for this video! I thought I had seen all of the photos of the family, but you had many that I had never seen before! The one of Ma as al old woman, sitting by a picture of Pa was very touching.
I wish there was a picture of Mary before she went blind. I have always been sad for her. Her life changed for the worse with that illness.
I was born the year after Laura died. I discovered Little House on the Prairie in the school library when I was in the third grade. I devoured it, and went back looking for more. Back then, popular books had a waiting list, so to get to check out the books, you had to wait for weeks or months! I read the entire series, but I think I had to wait over the summer until school opened in fall to check out the last one or two. Binging was very different back then! I had paid attention in school, and knew how to read, but Lauras’s books really turned me into a reader.
Thanks! Oh, I looked and looked for a picture of Mary before she went blind, but just had to give up eventually. I couldn't find one in a book or archives or anything. It may be they lived in the Big Woods for a lot of her childhood and pictures didn't come about often.
It was hard sometimes to get the books when I was young, but we had a good library with several and we also got books through the mail. Now it's so easy to get them from the internet, which is good for the new generation.
@@HistoryBUB Thank you for your reply!
The family wasn’t wealthy. I can imagine that photos weren’t high on the priority list for a young family. Food, cloths. Other necessities were more important. I understand. Thank you for your remarkable effort! I thoroughly enjoyed the photos!
You're welcome, and thank you!
@@pattimessenger6214 Your observation was striking. Given the fact that they didn't have a lot of money. Film was not cheap. Yet, someone either in the family or perhaps a close friend obviously had the $$, foresight and insight to think ahead to, take photographs of this enigmatic family!!
@@HistoryBUB Even the one of Carrie, Mary and Laura together that is not included in your collection is taken after she went blind I believe. You do know which one I'm talking about, don't you. It's the one where Laura and Mary are wearing checked dresses. Carrie and Laura are standing and Mary is seated. It must have been a while after she went blind though because her hair is long. The books say her hair was cut very short when her fever was high.
Read the books eons ago but I've been watching Little House again, it's wonderful to watch again as an adult.
I watched again this year. Great show.
In the photo of Rose where there are four poses, she looks remarkably like the actress Jennifer Jones. Rose was a journalist. She was the first female reporter for the San Francisco Chronicle, and covered the story of the Hetch Hetchy Dam and reservoir. Literary scholars have studied her style of writing vs her mother Laura’s writing style. The majority strongly believe that while Laura likely shared the actual stories of her childhood memories with her daughter Rose, it was, in fact, Rose who wrote the books. I read a biography about Rose, and she led a very interesting life. I recommend it to anyone interested in the story of Laura and her daughter Rose.
You're right. I had to look Jennifer Jones up, but they bear a resemblance to each other.
@@HistoryBUB Thank you for posting these photos. I saw some of them in the bio book I read re: Rose. If you are more than just a fan of “Little House on the Prairie,” (wonderful show), and enjoy reading, I highly recommend the book about Rose. It gives a glimpse into the real lives of this family, not the t.v. version. It also shows the relationship between mother and daughter, which, like many mother-daughter relationships, was at times contentious. Rose did extensive world traveling. She is also considered to be one of the early people in the Libertarian movement. Thanks again!
You're welcome and thanks for the info.
Michelle Williams bears a strong resemblance to Rose as well.
@@jrd3523 Yes! I never noticed. Especially with short hair.
Thank you for this! Very interesting!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love ANYTHING Little House on the Prairie!
Absolutely an amazing and beautiful woman had the imagination and courage in her heart to retell her life story and I love every single detail that she tells about her life love it so much xx
Love the photos many of which I had never seen before. Thank you for not slipping in any pictures from that ridiculous TV show! Rose Wilder Lane was a very attractive woman.
Thanks! I liked the show, up until around season 8. This is a history channel, so I mostly stick to real life.
I didn't like that show either
Didn't have TV as a kid in the 70's but I read Laura's books till they fell apart.
You can see the restored series on Amazon if you still want to watch.
Loved that show!
Same!
what a great video, seeing the real pictures of the real family
Glad you enjoyed it.
Priceless!
Thanks! One of my favorites.
Thank You cheers from Pennsylvania 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🎄🎄🎄
You're welcome. Happy Holidays from Ohio!
Great video
Did I miss Laura? I didn't know photo of her parents existed! That was great to see
Same here. I didn't see Laura.
@@LianissaReese I was surprised that she was left out.
She already has a video, I didn't think I should do all of them again, sorry. See it here: czcams.com/video/U4rpchCLjoI/video.html
Photos are awesome to see
They are. A couple of these, especially Carrie, are new to me.
MA outlived PA. By 22yrs. Didn't know that. Cool video haven't seen a fraction of these photos. I always thought the ones I've always seen were the only ones that existed
Norman Yes she did. Pa had diabetes and his heart failed
Thanks! So did I, then one day I was digging into The Herbert Hoover Presidential Library & Museum archives and came across a picture of Ma sitting outside I had never seen. I started looking around everywhere and spent a long time trying to find every one I could of the family members.
Almanzo looked really nice!
This is a very good history of the family in the early days .
Rose was very lovely.a brunette version of almanzô. Same eyes as him and expressions except the hair from Laura. At 5.11 rose is the girls version of Almanzo as a boy . Striking ressemblance!She was very pretty even with short hair. Grace was fine too and young laura and Almanzo. Fine pictures.
Yes, Rose got her good looks from her parents, for sure.
This one hat! 😂 I love it!!!
The one of Grace sideways? Yes, that's funny.
Greatly appreciated thks
Very welcome!
Che belle foto! Emozionanti!
Grazie mille!
Very cool. Now I know where I came from.
I'm glad you like it. Are they in your lineage?
The music is beautiful!
Carrie and Grace were both very smart women. When Carrie was 12 she recited an entire poem I think it was The Sculpture Boy. For the end of year program at school.
What's fascinating is that Carrie married a man who helped design Mt. Rushmore. Her stepson was involved in carving it.
Thank you 🦋🦋🦋
No problem 😊
This is very nice. I never was a fan of Rose, especially after learning about what she did to Jack London. Also, she was not very nice to her mother. I’ve always wondered if the sisters suffered infertility or if there was something else. Carrie did suffer from the effects of malnutrition after The Long Winter, and I always wondered if she had life long problems after.
What did she do to Jack London?
Yes, yes indeed - what DID she do to Jack London?
He was no saint himself...
Accusations with no documentation or sources sucks.
What did Rose do before she was 30?
Maybe keep your day job, as your humor sucks.
Rose was exceptional!!! It might be due to the different positions. But I still think she was lovely. Photography back then was different. You couldn't get the perfect picture back then.
I had help with my genealogy. And discovered that my grandfather who is contemporaneous with the Ingalls children. Changed his name, rearranged his name really and the genealogist said that that was odd. I think it had to do with Dunn and Bradstreet. Those guys were in every tiny town
Rose is very stylish and a woman ahead of her time it seems. Thanks for the upload.
You're welcome! Yes, Rose was determined to be the woman she wanted to be at a time when it was frowned upon. To answer your question, Laura has her own video since I have so many photos of her: czcams.com/video/U4rpchCLjoI/video.html
@@HistoryBUB Thank you for the link. You have such great photos to share! Much appreciated!
@@lisadiconti You're welcome and thank you too!
I am desperately looking for Caroline Years, Rose Years. I could only find a few of them in the libraries of USA. Is there any site to read those online ? I have all Laura Years.
Try The Internet Archive. I've borrowed many books from there about the Ingalls family and others associated with them. Great place that people are uploading to all day and night.
Carrie Ingalls looks eerily similar to Margaret Hamilton, who played Miss Gulch/The Wicked Witch Of The West in "The Wizard Of Oz".
I thought the same
Yes! I knew her face was familiar when I first saw her. That's wacky, but true.
Wow, I thought I had seen all the Ingalls pictures there were to see, but apparently not.
Rose was so beautiful.
You're right. I'm sure I saw a thousand pictures of Rose while researching for this. Very pretty.
Rose was so pretty. She died a couple months before my mom was born (December 12, 1928). crazy to think about. You did a really nice job. Thanks for this.
Yes, she was. You're welcome!
Rose Wilder Lane did not die in 1928
Rose died in 1968, age 81.
A caption by each photo would be nice to identify each person we’re seeing.
There is a section before each person with arrows pointing at their heads. Not difficult.
My mom grew up watching the TV series and years later I did the same, not even knowing they were real life people. Wow!
