Wright/Smith/Halsey family photo album

Posted: 10 Aug 2014 6:46AM GMT
Classification: Query
Surnames: Wright Smith Halsey
There is currently a family photo album from about 1890s time period offered for sale on e-bay with the names Wright, Halsey and Smith in them giving a location of Sigourney, Keokuk, Iowa. Below is the link and description to the listings. I have no relation to these names, nor to the book offered for sale, but thought I would alert those on this board, in case someone might know whose family this is, and preserve a bit of county history.

As you can see in the pictures, this album is in poor good condition. The pages have yellowed with age. 10 1/2 X 8 X 3. 5lbs.

All of the photos are in good condition. There are 18 Cabinet Cards, 33 CDV's and 27 Tintypes. Most are pictured. Please refer to the pictures. Fantastic pictures from the mid 1800's.

The inside flap says Marie Wright 1894. Most of the pictures have the name of the person written on the back. Another sir name prominent in the the album is Smith. The majority of the cards are from Iowa Photography studios. This family was from Sigourney Iowa.
