#1 - Though appearing to be a photograph of Teddy Roosevelt, things like the patch on the shoulder and the trumpet under his arm indicate that it this more likely is a member of the U.S. National Cavalry Unit.

These possibly are of the 14th Cavalry without any connection to the national parks.

Possibly U.S. Cavalry exercises in Yosemite National Park

P51_#1 rev.jpg

These photographs might be U.S. Cavalry Unit exercises  in the Hetch Hetchy Valley, part of Yosemite National Park. While Hetch Hetchy today has a lake in this valley, the dam that created the lake wasn't wasn't begun to be built until 1914.

​

From 1890s until 1916, U.S. Cavalry units provided the protection of Yellowstone and Yosemite National Parks.

​

The setting suggests these were taken when Adeline and Lucian were on their trip west. 

#7 - Lucian is probably the man on the right forefront with the white hat.
