Woodmen of the World:  This appears to have been taken at the old Bardwell Cemetary & I'm guessing that it's taken before 1900. There's no photographer/studio name on it.  I recognize the tallest fella on the right side of the flag - Gus Frech.  This photo belonged to my Grandmother, Lena Martin (nee Horn).  She was born & raised in Bardwell.

John Horn's Grocery and Butcher Shop (written on the back by Lena (Horn) Martin), ca late 1920's to early 1930's, located on Front Street in "downtown" Bardwell. 
L to R: John Edward Martin and John Horn
"Kit" of Mackeral is at front on right, next to it is pickle jar, Cracker barrel is in front of John Horn.
John Horn was known as "Uncle Johnny."
I've seen this pix in a book at the Wickliffe library. It has John Martin incorrectly identified as Herman Horn.

  911 mural painted by the submitter on the side of her building in Bardwell. At the time of the 1917 tornado, the bottom of the building housed the telephone company, and the upper story was the law office of Thad Collins. The tornado tore off the top story, and it was built back shortly thereafter. The line of newer brick can be discerned above the mural.
  The Carlisle County Museum and Library has a large collections of photos from the tornado.
