My grandmother, Esther Durfee, was a budding photographer while
living as a young woman with her parents in Bieber, Lassen County,
California. Her father, Thomas Jefferson Durfee was the postmaster there
over many years. When young Esther got her first camera she seemed to
have made it her mission to photograph every person within the
community, or so it seemed! The first photo album has had all the people
who were identified in it, scanned.
Today I would like
to introduce you to the Holcomb's; Alvin, Oscar and Roland. Photos taken about 1917 (could have been 1918).
This blog space allows me to add items of interest to me both professionally and personally.
