[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 31981, member: 85"]Just my observations and thoughts. I don't think the men have their hats off for the flag or anthem. Not all are held over their hearts. I think the photographer asked them to remove their hats so as not to block faces. Many just did what came naturally, crossed their hearts. It appears to be the back of the building. The building most likely is a school or academy, or it is a very large southern plantation. I'm guessing the building to have been built in the early 1800s. The men are in overcoats, the plants seem to have drooped from cold. Most likely a southern locale. [USER=339]@ScanticAntiques[/USER] What state are you in?[/QUOTE]
