This photograph was created by William James Young in the early 20th century. A large variety of subjects are depicted in the collection, but family, rural life and travel are the most prominent themes. The exact location of the photographs in the Young Collection is unknown, but W J Young lived on a farm in Mt Stewart, Rangitikei, and some of the photographs include his house. The Young family were apparently avid travellers and photographs later in the collection feature scenes from Rotorua, Auckland, Whanganui, as well as other unidentified locations. The portraits are all unidentified, but are presumably of members of the Young family. The photographers parents were George Henry (b 1833) and Jane McDowell (b 1842, d 1916). They came to New Zealand in 1877. The same year, they bought the home farm on Mt Stewart and called it Kilrudden after Kilrudden House, the home of the McDowell family in Ireland. The couple had four children: Ann (b 1873), Margaret (b 1876), John (b 1878) and William James (b 1880). William James married Mary Elizabeth Thompson and they had four children: Doris (b 1914, d 1989), George (b 1916, d 1991), Royden McDowell (b 1925, d 1992) and Noel William (b 1927, d 2013).

Bertie (Bert) Albert was born 2 January, 1883 at 75 Venue Street in Bromley, Poplar, Country of Middlesex, London. His family migrated to New Zealand in 1910 on the Arawa, arriving in Wellington in 1911. Bert worked in one of the dairy factories in Woodville as a carter, factory assistant and creamery manager. He also worked in Palmerston North at the NZ Farmers Union butter factory. He also appears to have worked as a part-time projectionist in cinemas around Palmerston North and Woodville. The family moved to Matamata in 1919/1920, where Bert's first wife Harriet passed away. The family returned to Palmerston North in 1927. He was employed as a storeman/driver at Goldingham & Becketts, King Street. It is about this time that this collection of photographs was taken. This image was made from a glass plate negative donated to the City Archives in 1971. The photographs were probably taken by Bertie to send home to family in England as postcards.
