Jake,
Hi. The photos you described seem to be related to Washington Irving's home, family and where he went to church. The old photos are of great value to the Irving and VanTassel/VanTassell families. The book that Washington Irving wrote {The Lengend of Sleepy Hollow} was about the VanTassel family and the town of Sleepy Hollow. The bridge you mentioned, might be the one that the Headless Horseman used. Are you related to either families?
