Okay, the main thing I would have zoomed in on is the buggy without any sort of orange safety emblem on the back. That would mean it was likely a Swartzentruber Amish-owned buggy. There are large populations in the North Country of New York, but these pictures seem more "Southern" in appearance. These photos were taken in Ethridge, Tennessee's conservative Amish community. Now, as a bonus, I'll also post a recipe from that community, a delicious formulation of the southern staple: corn bread. Enjoy!
