I seek to digitally preserve historical photos for others that might be looking for them. When possible I reunite the original copies with descendants, free of charge. Here are more photos in my ever growing collection. 

If any of these are your ancestors please contact me.



Names written on back in order but not identifying which girl is which: 
Evelyn CROSS, Agnes BILSTONE, Emma LANDEN, Lillie OLSEN, Helen PETERSON, Helen NELSON



Before and After digital restore




John Salisbury HOUSE in his later years.


Before and After digital restore





Back reads: "Mar. 4, 1886 Percy, 15 mos., Walter 3-11 mos. 
On Mama's 29th birthday. Mama born Mar. 4, 1859"
These are children of the above J. S. and Nellie HOUSE.
Interestingly Nellie's gravestone lists her birth year as being 1857. It's not known which year is correct.


Back reads: "Stephen (a nephew), Nellie, Clara, Walt and Percy in front. Taken the summer of 1894. In the backyard at 410 S. 'th by John House"



Back reads: "Neva Lorena, Nellie Leonia, Lois Irene, and George Howard HOUSE. Children of Henry HOUSE"

Before and After






Lotta AZZULIA, aged 20 years.
This is likely a stage name as this woman appears to be one of P. T. BARNUM'S Circassian Beauties
