The Turn-of-the-20th Century snapshots of
the Blake & Clark Families

#1

#2
Because the identities of all of the people aren't known, it's difficult to know if this is a group of family or friends. Since the church beyond the trees in #1 is the same as in the Random Photographs, it's possible that the woman in #1 is wearing a wedding dress, and that this is a gathering after the wedding. If so, the young man in the center front of #2 might be her groom.
#1 - unknown
#2 - back row, L-R: Sarah B. Blake, unknown man, unknown woman, Lucian Clark
Front row, L-R: unknown woman from #1, unknown man, Adeline Clark

#3 - "1900"
Despite a resemblance to Will Rogers, there isn't any suggestion in Will Rogers' history that he would be in the general area of the album's photographs' sites. My guess is that he is one of the many friends or relatives; possibly one of the Blake boys.
