From left to right are William Gallagher, Cornelius Gallagher, Doyal Gallagher (small boy, standing in front of the four men), an unknown man, and Francis Gallagher. William Gallagher is wearing a a sweater over a dress shirt and tie, and slacks. The sweater appears to read "193"... across the chest. A fourth number is unreadable.

His right arm is down at his side, and in his right hand is a Homburg or fedora-style hat. His left hand is held in front of his waist. Doyal Gallagher is wearing a long-sleeved button-up shirt and short pants. His arms are down at his sides, and in his right hand is a newsboy-style cap.

The shadow of the photographer is visible near the lower-right corner of the image. The roof peak and upper floor of one of the sides of the Gallagher House is visible behind the men.
Written on the back side of this photograph is "Left to Right Bill/Con/?/Francis (Sy)" and "Doyal Gallagher (Francis & Mert Son). The accession number is written in the bottom-right corner. An old accession number is in the upper-left corner. The number 9634 (or perhaps 0634) is stamped just above the center.
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
