K. Doak is likely Kenneth Doak, and based on his appearance in WWI military photographs this photo was likely taken post-1918.
Wilfred Brown was my neighbor, he lived at 47 east Amelia st with his wife.
Wilfred was an avid angler and documented many of his trips on lake Superior with friends canoeing.
Pie island, Caribou island, isle Royale and the welcome islands among others were some of his favorite subjects to write about. Unfortunately I only read his copies but never was given copies to keep. Wilfred had several small booklets of his trips published, I am wondering if any of these booklets still exist.
I believe this photo would have been taken on one of these trips as he told me they would utilise old trapper cabins where they could and bring along canvass cabin tents.
When I knew the Browns they were in there late seventies through mid eighties (1974 and on).
