My great grandfather Walter David Hunt operated a photography studio in Gas City Indiana at the turn of the century. I'm looking for any information about the dates and addresses. The 1895 Grant County directory lists W.D. Hunt's home, gallery and shop at 241 1/2 E Main in Gas City but this is about all I know.

Any help I could get will be greatly appreciated.

I know this is 4 years late. I just found two photographs of my Grandfather and grandmother Made by Hunt Photography in Gas City, Indiana. There is no date, but they married in in 1903 and had moved to Knoxville, Tn by 1910.

You mentioned a Grant County Directory in your post. How could I find these records?

Thanks

I'm aware of a couple of directories that might help you.

1902-03 Johnson's Business and Professional Directory of Indiana, p. 132 Gas City Business Directory
http://archive.org/stream/johnsonsbusiness190203wash#page/n1...

1895-96 Polk's Ind. State Gazetteer & Business Directory: I don't think this is online; they have it at the Indiana State Library and many smaller libraries in Indiana.

Here is a list of some other Indiana directories:

The Marion Public Library could help you with other Grant County directories.
