All of the pictures on this page were found in a photograph album belonging to my great-grandmother's sister, Rosa Gantt Hamilton. If you know who these people are, and they are in your family line, please contact me. I'd be delighted to share with you!

	This seems to be the oldest of the group from Luknbach's Gallery. The back of this spells the studio name Lukenback's. This is the only picture that spells it that way! This may match one of Mary Jane Ziegler Gantt Carvell, my g-g-grandmother. (see her picture on another page.) I do have a picture of her, from the same studio, and her likeness is also in an oval, with no background. Could this be her first husband, Joseph Don Lobaugh Gantt? or perhaps a brother? She had three brothers, Philip, Philip Henry and Daniel.
	This appears to be the next oldest picture. On the back of this one, the spelling of the studio has changed to Lukenbach's The border around the picture matches the next three pictures..
	The next three pictures were taken in the same time period ~ I can tell because the carpeting and chair is the same in all three pictures. The next two pictures differ from this one, only with the curtain in the background. All three backs are identical, with the exception of the absence of the stamp on the back of the woman's picture.
	One of the group of three pictures.
	The only way this differs from the above two photograhs is the lack of the stamp on the back of the picture.
	The floor in this picture is the same as the above three pictures, however, the chair has changed, and this picture does not have the border around it that the other 3 have. Very handsome young man!
