A lady in a dress with a bustle and a pleated hem. It is kinda weird that she is leaning on that chair that is covered with a drape.

This Cabinet Card is from the Tin Ceiling in Park Rapids, Minnesota.

A young gal with a great big white bow, she is clutching something but I cannot tell what it is, flowers and a handkerchief?  Maybe.  She wears tiny earrings.

Oswald was the photographer at 1227 and 1229 Washington Ave N.  Minneapolis.

I find the Oswald Brothers Emil and Charles in business together at 1227 Washington Ave. N in the years 1887 to 1895.

They chose the landing of Columbus to adorn the back of their Cabinet Cards.

Miller was the photographer in Arkansas City Kans

Chester Howell  July 7 1901  1905 Chilocco School

Does he look about 14 or 15 to you…maybe an Eighth Grade Photo?

Thanks for stopping by.

Update from Iggy:

I think this is Chester Norman Howell (July 8, 1892 in Uniontown, Arkansas - Aug 20, 1964 in Okmulgee, Oklahoma

Chilocco Indian School was an agricultural school for Native Americans located in north-central Oklahoma from 1884 to 1980. It was located approximately 20 miles north of Ponca City, Oklahoma and seven miles north of Newkirk, Oklahoma, near the Kansas border. The name "Chilocco" is apparently derived from a Muscogee word meaning "big deer" or horse.

Arkansas City is about 7 miles north-northeast of the school.

This is a photo from Craig’s Collection.

Loucks Photo Co at 28 Central Ave Minneapolis was the photographer.  Further research finds a R.W. Loucks working at that address in 1903.

Isaac Emerson    West Concord Minn

Isaac is probably about 20 years old in this photo.  West Concord is in Dodge County.

Thanks for stopping by.

Update:

 Isaac Emerson born June 9 1880 in Minnesota. Died June 20 1974 Goodhue County Minnesota. His parents were Ennert H. and Aase Buene. He married Anna S. Emerson. Siblings would be Rudolph, Joseph and Emma.

Iggy found out that he was a Minnesota Legislator from 1923 to 1930.   He graduated from the Minnesota School of Agriculture in 1903 so this is probably his graduation photo.

Edith Buzzell Plattsmouth, Neb

Thanks for stopping by.

Update from Iggy:

Edith Blanche Buzzell (July 17, 1878 - 15 Jul 1966 in Omaha, Douglas, Nebraska) was the daughter of Ira Artemas Buzzell and Mary M Pratt.

She married Frank L Clark and they had two children, Eva and Frank. The couple lived in Corning, Adams, Iowa in 1930.

Photo Number 1723

This is a photo from Craig’s Collection.

It is just a little smaller than a Cabinet Card. This photo is most likely from the 1880’s.  She is wearing a tight fitting jacket with a high white collar, lots of buttons and trims.  I will guess that she is 18 –20 years old.

Elizabeth Turner Owen (your grandmother)

Thanks for stopping by.

Update from Iggy:  This is a good possibility.

Elizabeth Grace Turner Owen (9 Nov 1888 in Missouri - 10 Apr 1953 in San Bernardino, California) was an Owen that married a Leslie Turner

Albert Marion Jones

Mary Ann Ettinger    Mother

William Weightman   Brother

Thanks for stopping by.

Update from Iggy:

Albert Marion Jones (6 Jun 1877 in Missouri - 19 Oct 1944 in Los Angeles) was the son of Mary Ann Ettinger/Weightman Jones.

It's a little confusing since Mary Ann apparently was widowed early (by 1900) and the census records of 1900, her last name is recorded as Ettiger and widowed. It would appear she was widowed twice?

She (Feb. 12, 1844 - Mar. 8, 1916) is Find A Grave Memorial# 91704256

ALbert's Uncle William (September 1871) was much younger than his mother - and maybe a half brother --

A family tree in Ancestry claims his parents are John Weightman (1817 – 1891) and Elizabeth Ann Siegrist (1826 – ?) Which would make his parents really oldsters then they had him.

The photographer was Shaw at the Bickford Building Whitman, Mass.

The young lady looks very serious!  I will guess that the photo was taken sometime in the 1880’s and she is about18 years old.  Just a guess.

I will guess this photo was taken in the 1870’s.  How old do you think she was when the photo was taken?   50?
