    Default Waterway People

    In the mid -1800's English Waterways and Canals started to fall into disuse , as the steam-train took over. Many families started living on the abandoned boats and barges on these canals.
    This photo taken around 1910 shows a tipical waterways family.
    The owner of this photo is unknown, apart from it was taken in England, maybe north England?
