Physical Description: 1 photograph (tiff) : 300 dpi

Scope and Content: Photograph of Eleanor Irwin (Nelson) and Louise Irwin on a tricycle with their Aunt Mary Beale standing behind. Eleanor is peddling while Louise is standing behind and holding onto her her sister's waist. The group is in the yard of the Irwin family home on the site of the Barnet Lumber Mill. The manager's house where Mr. and Mrs. Reid lived is visible in the distance.

History: Henry Stanley Irwin (1890-1966) started work at Barnet mill in 1924. Henry and his wife Elsie May Irwin (Taylor) Irwin (1894-1985) first lived with thier two daughters, Eleanor (Nelson) (1924-2005) and Louise (1927-) in a worker's cabin before moving to the Barnet Mill's managers' residence. The household included Elsie's mother, Elizabeth (Shephard) Taylor (1868-1950). The family resided at Barnet until they moved to Vancouver in September 1939. Louise and her older sister Eleanor attended Barnet School like other children in the Barnet area. After the mill closed in 1931, Henry was unemployed for two years, during this time, he hired a horse and driver and cut logs from the slopes of Burnaby Mountain to support his family.
