| This is an enlargement with the photgraph pasted on cardboard. The subject is obviously bringing in the hay. The back of the cardboard is stamped "TIBITTS &SWITZER, Photographers, Views, englargements, Etc. 137 W. Main St. Johnstown-NY". This house seems to be the same one as shown in a much later photograph that some have told me was the house on Diamond Hill. |

| This photograph looks like a much later picture of the above house. It is a small black and white photograh that was pasted on to a "calling card" portrait. Some family members thought it was the "house on diamond hill". I would appreciate hearing from anyone who might be able to shed some light on it. |
| This photograph a man on a wagon may be related to the first photograph, noting the team of white horses and similar hitch to the wagon. The setting seems to be along a creek with the mountains in the background. |

 | This picture of three men in front of the Rock Bottom Store Groceries is not marked. However, I assume the shop keeper in the middle is John DeRonde (born 10 Mar 1843 and died 31 Jan 1910 when a horse team on his sled bolted), Flora Brower's uncle. John is listed as a Grocier in Kingsboro in the 1876 City Directory. There is one other photograph in the collection that seems to be the same person. |
