1987-006.043Description
Snack Table at Gallagher House, c. 1986. This image shows various vegetables cut into snack-size portions arranged on a round platter with two small metal bowls at the center. The bowls each contain a different-colored liquid. This platter is mostly on the right-hand side of the image. To the upper left of this platter is a clear vase with flowers in it. The top of the flowers are outside the upper edge of the image frame. To the left of this vase is a metal tray with crackers on it. Below this tray are a small cermaic cream pitcher and sugar bowl. In the lower left of the image is a small handwritten sign which reads "Deli Tray Donated By The: PRIME CONNECTION Lacey." All of these items are on a long, narrow table with a lace tablecloth on it. Two windows are partially visible beyond the back edge of the table.
The reverse side of this photograph is blank aside from the accession number in the lower-right corner.
The Gallagher House was built in either late 1896 or early 1897 at what later became the intersection of Carpenter Road and Pacific Avenue in Lacey, Washington, most likely by William B. Chamberlin. By 1900, the home had been repossessed by Alameda Rowe, the original owner of the land on which the home was built. Rowe turned the house and the adjoining property over to relatives in 1902, who then sold the house and property to Cornelius and Anna Gallagher in 1908. The Gallaghers lived in the home until Cornelius passed away in 1950. The house then changed hands to Harold and Millie Crass, who then sold it to Abner and Hazel Hukee in 1959. In 1985, the house was donated to the Lacey Historical Society, who moved the house to a piece of property adjacent to the Lacey Museum on Lacey Street. The house was subsequently rented out by the Lacey Historical Society until it was sold to a private buyer in 2018.Made/Created
