From the collection of film and 4x5 glass negatives I recently purchased. We believe that this is the photographer, as well as the boy's father.  We are not sure where these photos were taken, but a number of them can be identified as Trenton Falls, although by then the park was in private hands. A dam had been built, choking off the flow to the ravine and eliminating the series of waterfalls that made it an international attraction.  The water was diverted through a pipe to a turbine a mile or so below to generate electricity, and it remains in operation.  The hotel and all the other amenities were removed, and the area was closed to the public. View full size.
