• Notes

  One, Morgan Williams was a Photographer here in 1863; William Sauder in 1864; Henry Askew in the earlier eighties. Bonaparte Lake in the later years of that decade. These men used "Wet" Plates which they prepared themselves by coating a sheet of glass, cut to size, with sensitized gelatin. The Plate went wet into the camera and after the picture was taken the negative had to be developed promptly....Mr. Bonaparte Lake's Gallery was located in a frame house which stood on top of the hill above and just a little south of Louis Buchholtz' stone dwelling on Adam Street.
