Joseph Olivier (Joe) Derosier and Albert Noah (Bert) Peltier (my great-granduncle and my granduncle)
I was told that Joe and Bert were drinking buddies.  It appears that they also liked to fish.  There’s a possibility that the lake behind them is Lake Vadnais since it was the closest lake to the Peltier family farm.
Mid 1950s – shown (l to r): Avis Peltier, Cleve Peltier, JoAnn Peltier, Vivian and Clem Peltier
Avis, Cleve and Clem are siblings.  JoAnn is Vivian and Clem’s daughter.
Cleve and his wife Mabel owned an old hobby farm at Trade Lake, Wisconsin where the family would go for a getaway (see the next picture).  It was located about 70 miles northeast of St. Paul, making it an easy weekend trip.
