Three Unknown Homes ~ Unknown Locations

Your Help would be appreciated !!!

Update:       The home with eleven people standing in front with the white pointed trim on the front windows and door was taken in 1878 or 1879. It is the home of William and Ellen Grames Lake (My great grand parents)The people are my grandparents and the small girl in front of her mother is my grand mother Rosie Lake. Rosie was born in Mt. Pleasant and married Herbert Farnworth the son of George Farnworth. George Farnworth was one of several original families who were sent by Brigham Young to establish Mt. Pleasant.

My name is Richard Jackson and you have posted a home on the Mt Pleasant Museum web site which I have identified as the one my Grandmother Rosie Lake Farnworth was born in.  It belonged to my great grand parents William Lake and Ellen Grames Lake.  It is located in Mt. Pleasant and I have attached two pictures of it.  The top one is the one our family took in 1966 and the bottom one is the one you posted on your web site.  It appears as though my 1966 picture reveals some remodeling on the home over the years.  The family in front of the home is that of my great grandparents William and Ellen Grames Lake taken about 1878 or 1879.  If you happen to have a high resolution picture of this, I would love to have it so I can print a larger picture with out the graininess.

Thank you so much for posting this picture! 

Sincerly,

Richard E. Jackson

These Glass-Plate Negatives were found in the attic of the Relic Home.  We believe the photos were taken here in Mt. Pleasant.  These three are not recognizable to us.  If you can identify them, please let us know.

Several years ago we found a candy box full of glass plate negatives in the attic of the Relic Home.  Some have been restored by Chas Hathaway.  Tudy Standlee decided to take some home to try a hand at it.  She was quite successful as you can see from the following slides.  If you can recognize any of these homes or the people pictured, please let us know.  

Mt. Pleasant Homes ~ Glass Plate Negatives ~ Restored by Chas Hathaway

Three years ago we found a candybox in the attic of the Relic Home filled with glass plate negatives.  They were in pretty rough shape  ~ beyond hope of restoration.  Chas Hathaway came to the Relic Home a few months ago and took one on to restore.  He did such a beautiful job, we asked him to do more.  These photos are just an example of the many he has done for us. 

Now we hope you can help us by

identifying the homes and the people

included in the photographs.

Notice the old cash register, the ornate woodwork, the many varieties of liquours, the lighting fixture and oh the nude lady hanging on the wall.
