The Clatskanie, Oregon, girls' basketball club, circa 1895. My grandmother Jennie Myers (1877-1934) is at the upper right, a few years before she married my grandfather. There were only about 100 families in this little logging town, so it's interesting to me that they had enough girls of the right age for a couple of teams. View full size. (Member Gallery)

I found this photo in a family scrapbook dating to the early 1950s. Out of curiosity I searched the internet for "Uncanny Canyon" and was surprised to see the same picture with a different person on the Shorpy.com website. Compare to the listing Dad at Uncanny Canyon in Oregon, 1954. The back of this photo is also submitted, with the writing: "Taken in one of those crazy houses .... Jack thinks he is standing straight." I asked my father, who is 87 years old and lived in Oregon in the early 50s, about the photo and he does not recall the person or the event. View full size.

Ambrotype of my great-great-great-uncles, Ephraim R. Jones and John Quincy Adams Jones, about 1858-1860 in Illinois. I am descended from their brother, Martin Van Buren Jones, who went to northern California via the Oregon trail in 1852. Ephraim was an early-day portrait photographer (Jones and Hover Studio, Jacksonville, Illinois) and was, according to family lore, for a while a traveling fiddler and dancing master. He came to the northern California coast town of Crescent City to visit Martin and his family and probably brought this and my other Jones family ambrotypes with him, and I have inherited them. John Quincy Adams Jones was a young lawyer in Havana, Illinois with a promising career ahead of him when he enlisted as a Lieutenant in Company K, 17th Regiment, Illinois Volunteer Infantry in 1861, and was killed in the battle of Fredericktown, Missouri on Oct. 24, 1861.

Print found in a second-hand store in Portland, Oregon. Reverse has note which says "July 20, 1943 Patterson Field" and "Joey Boling in center". I am guessing a B-17F in the background. View full size. (ShorpyBlog, Member Gallery)
