Do we know the date of this photo? So cool, thanks for sharing. I know exactly where this is.
What a great picture!!
Very cool!
So different!
Those dirt roads were the days to ride horses
Don't people know that it is dangerous to ride a horse on the road. Nice photo
Tommy Babcock I will always call you the Mayor of North Ogden
I used to drive that road back in the day to get to school!
Beth Ellis (front & at the left) is pictured with her friends, Lucille England, Gladys Fisher, and Bernice Daniels in 1935. They were North Ogden schoolmates. The car is a 1931 Model A 400. There were 5000 of these cars produced. Thanks Craig Berry!
1930 or 1931 model A 400
Thanks Craig!
If you can see the front of the radiator shell you can tell the difference between a 30 and a 31
✔️
It’s a 1931 only year it was built as a model A 5000 were produced
That is really cool looking
Aw, my Great Aunt Gladys was the best!!

We have four more unknown photos from the Lillias Montgomery Randall photo album. We hope someone out there in FB land can help us identify them!

A news article from January 22, 1949 reports the trials of the year of "The Big Snow" in North Ogden. The widow that was trapped in a shed was Edith Orth, who was the piano teacher of many local students. Her home was in the hollow where the dog park is now. Note: The museum will be closed this week due to the weather.
It would be fun to see a picture of a 1949 snowplow
I do remember that storm, I was four years old. Snow to the roof tops…and I so remember Edith Orth, her home and the hollow.
My sister was born in the car. They struggled getting to the hospital.
My mom’s cousin had to pull his wife on a sled from about 160 East on Elberta Drive up to the corner of Washington to meet someone there with a car! They did make it to the hospital before the baby came—Jan. 8, 1949.
I remember ‘the big snow’, and I remember mrs. Orth. As a young man, I just had to shovel a lot of snow, but that’s just the way it was!
So do I Connie👍
Most interesting Marie
I also remember it well!
The year I was born. I’ve had older people than I comment often over the years how bad winter was that year. Plus. I was born in Wyoming where winter is known for being terrible and windy! 🤣😂🤣😂🥶
I missed that snow storm. I can remember my mom talking about it once in awhile.
A copy of a "Come Live in North Ogden" pamphlet from about 1955! The "DJ Plaza" was new when Davenport's and Food King were located there.
We used to go there all the time!
Look at all that farm land!!!
Can we create a new Go Live in California pamphlet?
Leslie Clifton, enjoy
