Provenance

Notes

Scan provided via email by Kevin Eberle, for use in HCF's Archives. Per the donor: The family that built two of the houses on Moultrie St. was the Hendry family (who owned a dairy in the uptown). I emailed to a descendent of the family who maintains a web site with family history about the Hendry family. She was able to send me the attached image of the family house on Rutledge Ave. I think it is 253 Rutledge, but I cannot recall the address right now. The woman did not have the original photo herself (it belongs to a feeble, elderly relation and she copied it some time ago). As a result, the quality of the scan is not perfect, but it is better than nothing. I think that the photo was taken about 1900-1910.
