My great-grandparents came to Kansas from Ohio by means of covered wagon. This photo is the evening they arrived in Augusta, Kansas (just east of Wichita) in 1885, and where they settled. They are in the foreground of the photo.

My grandmother Boucher is the young girl on the dark horse with the wide brimmed hat.

Many Boucher's still remain in that part of Kansas, including my father.
