Photographs of an unidentified South Carolina family
Collection Overview
These twelve sepia tone photographs picture two women, a man, two young girls, and at least one more child who is visible in the background of several images. Subjects (who may be a Jewish family in Camden, South Carolina) are dressed in formal styles of the early 1900s. All photographs were taken in the garden behind a house with subjects in formal poses.
