Photograph Collection

Kentucky, Montana, and Boone County, Missouri Photograph Collection

 

These photographs were found in an old family photo album. The album dates around 1880. The photos date from approximately 1888-1920s.
The album belonged to Maude Potts Boyce Theissen, b. 1875 d. 1966 Boone County, Missouri. When Maude died, it went to her daughter, Frances Boyce Jacobs, wife of Ronald Jacobs, who lived in Boone County, Missouri and Louisville, Kentucky. They had a son, Robert (Bobby Fred) Jacobs.
Some of the photos I have identified as ancestors. Some have names and/or locations, while others have no identification. The surnames included are: BAKER, BOYCE, COOK, DEWEY, EVANS, FERGUSON, HOUCK, JACKSON, JACOBS, MASTERSON, PENDLETON, POTTS, STEWART, and WELDON. (Other names found in the album on memorabilia are HOPPER, MARCH, SAMPSON, and SAPPINGTON.)
If you are able to identify any of the unidentified photos, are familiar with any of the identified ones, or have any questions or comments, please email me at [email protected].
