I have aquired a packet of pictures from a development Co. in the 1880 timeframe. included in this packet there are 36 pictures of building sites, Residences, and People. I will list the names that appear on the pictures. If anyone would like copies of these pictures i will scan them and send them to you.
The pictures are not the best quality but i will do my best to enhance them if you would like.
