Hammer Island in the 1920’s looking west towards Altamont Pass. The fish appear to be American Shad?

More in 1920’s era. Woman with the fish is Hans Hammer’s first wife, Bertha Ronsholdt (Danish immigrant). Maybe she’s with her parents? In the distance is the houseboat that was eventually added on to the Hans Hammer cabin as the kitchen, we assume.

At Hammer cabin, Hans and Bertha Hammer in the late 1920’s, Early 1930’s. The cabin exists today in original condition more or less.
