Historic Photos

The archive volunteers at the museum are struggling to identify some old photographs. So, we thought if we posted them on the blog, then readers can help us identify some of these unknown photos.
The photo above is a recent donation. The photo was taken by a photographer by the name of Kegebein who had a studio in Princeville. Please email us if you know where this house is located. On the back of the photo, "Fall 1901" is written.

UPDATE: This house is currently the Hammitt Hott Funeral Home on the corner of Walnut and High St. The home has undergone many renovations.
