The photo above with the three ladies is the only one with any names written on the back: Mother Elizabeth and Henryette.
The photo of the boy above is also interesting, because another photographer's name and a different location (Scranton?) were printed on the back before they were crossed out and replaced with Kirby and Susquehanna. Kirby must have bought another photographer's card stock.

Do you think they all belong together as a family? The lady in the pattern dress appears to be repeated, though the father and daughter in picture 2 have a different look, they do look quite sinister.
ReplyDeleteI don't know that they're family, but I would bet that any one of them could probably identify the others.
DeleteThe boy looks like he's been standing in a high crosswind for a while...
ReplyDeleteThese are interesting to see. I have two family albums of photos of unknown family members from an old house.
ReplyDeleteOkay, the daughter and father remind me of the old movie "Village of the Damned." I remember seeing the preview for that movie on a big drive-in theater screen. I was terrified the whole way home.
ReplyDeleteif I were casting for a horror movie, I would definitely pick those two. They don't even need to speak!
DeleteStunning photos. Very 'other-worldly'
ReplyDeleteThe ladies trio is especially interesting, with their unique faces and contrasting fashions. And the 'damned' duo didn't bug me at first, but now that others have mentioned it, they do sorta seem to look thru you in a creepy kind of way- good characters for a Halloween haunted house.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope it's father and daughter ...
