Luella Grannis Album, 1862-1867

Scope and Content Note

The 47 2½” x 3½” black and white photographs in this collection range in date from 1862 to 1867. They were all identified by the original owner of the album, Luella Grannis (also spelled Louella). These photos are of prominent Milwaukee residents and their families. They were likely given to Grannis while she worked as a nurse or nanny for these families. The album and the photographs are in excellent condition for its age. The spine, pages, and exterior clamps are all intact.
