Vera Wind Spaulding, native of Clayton, WA.
The Vera Wind, Jack Spaulding story of family & friends.
The life story of Vera Wind Spaulding is intertwined with very large families such as Cowan, Olds and Westby. Untangling the maze will fall to the hands of family genealogist Susan Wind Simpson, Gayle (Vera's daughter), and Vera herself. For the most part the captions at present are temporary and unsubstantiated.

A note from Inga Erickson to Vera. The Erickson family was native Trysil Norway.
The long ago Erickson estate in Trysil Norway. These buildings stand no more.
Judging from the look of hardship in her eyes, it would seem this lady is from a foreign country and an ancestor of Vera. We'll see.
Undoubtedly Husband & Wife.
Vera posesses a half dozen very rare professional photographs taken inside the Clayton WB&L Terra Cotta plant. In the process capturing an image of Ole Wind facing the camera on the right. Although not verified it appears to be Leno at the mortar table at center. Photo by Martin 1/20/21
Likewise this photo contains an image of Harry Cowan, center wearing a cap
