17415090Montreal: 3 April 1741. Reference: PENF #242. When Seigneur Dubuisson died in 1739 he was Commander in the West Major of Trois-Rivières. He had commanded the fort at Detroit from 1710 to 1715 wreaking devastation to the Fox Nation. In the late 1720s he commanded Michilmackinac and continued to confront the Fox. His daughter Louise married Tonti commander at Green Bay Wisconsin and at Fort Frontenac; his daughter Madeleine married Philippe de Joncaire the Indian agent and interpreter. The document testifies that the children received their father's furniture and effects inventoried elsewhere from la Dame de Dubuisson "with the exception of a mirror . which we have left her for her lifetime." In addition to Tonti and Joncaire the document is signed by Marianne du Dubuisson Jacques-Charles junior and by witnesses and the notary. 210 x 230 mm; two pages 22 lines of text.

193864886Maine 1938. Photograph album 7 3/8 x 11 1/2 inches 44 of 48 leaves employed both sides used for either mounting photographs or describing them or both with short narratives about trips occasionally interspersed; affixed to two leaves are reproduced copies of a 1937 manuscript map executed by Erastus Haring picturing the lake hand-colored blue and identifying physical features and property owners all along its shores. The Erastus Haring family of Suffern New York vacationed at the same time at the same cabin on Sebec Lake about 40 miles northwest of Bangor for twelve summers recording their fishing adventures and other outdoor activities e.g. sailing waterboarding in the album. The majority of the photographs depict the Haring family especially sons Warren and Horace boating and catching salmon trout and bass with many "action" images and more of "stringed" fish; also captured are occasional fishing hiking or sight seeing trips to nearby spots in Maine e.g. Moosehead Lake Rangeley Lake Bar Harbor Mount Katadhin. A number of the photos focus on community life around the lake with outdoor meals neighbors in front of houses fish preparation for meals etc. The detailed captions add a great deal of context to the album; in addition to exhaustive identification of people places and dates there are manuscript full-page poems at least one attributed to Mr. Haring with content related to fishing pithy quotations related to the sport "the fellow who keeps his hook in the water catches the fish" and descriptions of the day's fishing events "with Richard it may be a long time before he catches another as large as this one". Two photographs missing two laid in loose an excellent family pictorial record of summer excursions for land-locked salmon and other species mostly on Sebec Lake northwest of Bangor.

1910List1805Pennsylvania and France 1910. Five Cabinet Card Photographs and one Mounted Photograph taken at the L. Vasseur Studio in Paris. Generally fine condition one cabinet card with chips to mount. Near Fine. A small but very compelling group of images recovered from a family collection documenting an African-American family from Pennsylvania. Five of the images bear no identification one states on verso: “Mrs. Harriet Oskins / died at the age / of 112.†Most of the photographs are taken at various Pennsylvania locations including Philadelphia Allentown New Lebanon and Lehighton. We find record of an A.H. and McCleary Oskins and family listed as African-American in the Philadelphia census records from 1910. <br /> <br /> Of particular note is a photograph of an African- American serviceman and presumed family member taken at a Paris studio. It’s a particularly striking image and the first formal portrait of an African-American taken in a French studio during WWI that we have encountered. <br /> <br /> Overall a visually compelling and important group with the Paris photo of particular rarity worthy of preservation as a family collection despite the limited information on the specific subjects. unknown
