Every week we share a different image on the Essex on Lake Champlain Facebook page and invite our viewers to play some Vintage Essex Trivia.
We shared the image above with the caption cropped off and asked viewers what they could recognize in this photo. Do you recognize any landmarks? Would you know where this is without the caption?
Here is what the community had to say and they were spot on the location!
Alice Connors: The Four Brothers had trees before cormorants.
Bill Mock: This is Willsboro point looking at the 4 Brother Islands
The back side doesn’t provide much information. Although it was mailed, the postage stamp is very faint. I believe it says Sep. 23, but I’m not sure of the year. 1913 perhaps? What do you think? You can click on the image to enlarge.
