Whitehorse Photographer- Ephraim Hamacher

Hamacher was born in Wilmot Township in 1857. In the summer of 1900, he arrived in Whitehorse following in the footsteps of the Gold Rush photographer, E.A. Hegg. Hamacher never left the Yukon and his photographs have become priceless treasures from a by-gone era. He will always be known as the "Whitehorse Photographer."

We are in receipt of a letter from Mr. E. J. Hamacher of White Horse, Yukon, in which he states that he is now on his way to Agua Caliente, Arizona, where he intends to spend the winter, returning to the Yukon again in the spring. Mr. Hamacher has been a subscriber to the Independent for many years and enjoys reading the news from the old town. He will be remembered by many of the older people in town having conducted ia photo studio here in the eighties. He has been in the Yukon for many years.

In a letter received from Mr. E. J. Hamacher from Agua Caliente, Arizona, he informs us that he is leaving again for his home in White Horse, Yukon Territory. He spent the past few winters in Arizona and writes us that there they have summer all the year around with temperature at 95 on the day of leaving and butterflies fluttering around. He states that the past winter was the pleasantest weather he ever experienced. Mr. Hamacher wishes to be remembered to all his old New Hamburg friends.
