Orlean Morgan Nield was the youngest child of William and Lovina Morgan

The picture above was probably taken in the mid 1940's because two more children (Renae (1947) and Steven (1950) were born to this family and they are not present in the picture.

Beverly Toone Nield, wife of Lenard Rex Nield, and they were married in 1949. Rex was behind the camera.

Lenard Nield and his son Delbert milking cows, probably at the dairy he operated near Idaho Falls, Idaho. He is holding a Surge milker, the first mechanized milker to arrive on our Idaho farms. The surge operated by suction and hung on a strap under the cow. When full it was carried to a milk can with a funnel/strainer sitting in the top of it, and poured through the strainer into the can. Lenard was a dairy farmer in the Idaho Falls area and later moved to the Bitterroot Valley in Montana where he also had dairy cows.
