Caretaker’s House, Kansas Emergency Relief Committee’s Lake Wabaunsee Camp

This 1934 photograph by Harold Wolfe of Topeka, Kansas features the lake caretaker’s house at Lake Wabaunsee. Clyde Forinash, writes on the reverse of the photo, “I built this in 1934 with transient help. I was there as an instructor on the complete job, and worked more than 60 different men on this one job. It burned down and was rebuilt, then rebuilt again, and the second time, the gables were restored to their present position.”
