Would anyone have access to the Glenn County Great Register for the years between 1890 & 1900? I would like to know if the following men are listed - Henry Berry (b 1868, MO), Ezekiel Berry (b 1870, MO), Albert Lucas (b 1876, MO), Francis "Frank" Morrison (b 1867, MO) or James "Jim" Morrison (b 1872, MO).

Would it have been likely for someone from Glenn Co. to go to Chico, Butte Co., CA for photographs in the 1890's? I have copies of 6 photos taken of these men and the photographers are all in Butte Co

It was very possible. Depending on where they were in Glenn County the mileage is very doable. It would have been an overnight trip, but what better reason to visit? They would also had to ferry across the Sacramento River to get from the then Colusi County to Butte County. Glenn County was formed from Colusi County 11 Mar 1891. Colusi County encompassed current Colusa, Glenn, and a portion of Tehama counties. Ferries dotted the river and commonly transferred people, animals, and freight from one side to the other.
