This is Andrew Douglas, photo taken in Columbus, Muscogee Co., Georgia.  The photographer was G.T. Williams of 81 Broad Street, upstairs.

Small child standing on a boulder, next to a wooden fence structure.  The photo was taken by Van Riper of Columbus, Georgia.

Older gentleman, possibly 50-60 years old [more or less].  Photo taken by Van Riper of Columbus, Georgia.

Written on the back of this photo is "Aunt Lucy", it is a photo of an infant, and also on the back is the photographer's logo:  "Artistic Photography, S.M. FASSETT. 114 South Clark St. CHICAGO, Ills."  A couple of other photos were addressed to Aunt Lucy, so it is unknown if this is a picture of her, or merely another one addressed to her.

"Raphael" was written on the album page, and on this photo.  I do not know whether this is an actual family member, or merely a "filler photo", like you would find in a picture frame or wallet when you buy one.

The worst tintype in the group.  Photo is of an infant in a dressing gown, propped in a chair.

Walter C. Wilson is pictured to your left, and according to the writing on the back of the photo he was 18 months old by 27 January 1881.  The photo was taken in Atlanta, Georgia, by Kullins of Whitehall Street, and in the 1880 census you will find young Walter with his parents and grandparents.  According to this census his father was John C. Wilson, mother was May C. Wilson, and his grandparents were Steinbeck & Mattie E. Wilson.  An uncle was also living there, Arthur Wilson.  They were all living on South Pryor in Fulton County, Georgia.

Photo of a young girl, with a very sour expression, clearly wasn't happy about having her photo taken.  From all appearances she may be just a toddler, no more than 3 years old.  This photograph was taken in Chicago, Cook Co., Illinois by A. Hesler of 113 Lake Street.

Gentleman of about 20-30 years old.  Photo taken by D.W. Van Riper of Columbus, Georgia.

Leona F. Hackney written on the front, photo taken by A.T. Walker of Greenville Street in Newman, Georgia.  She can be found in the 1880 Coweta Co., Georgia census with her father Rhod, mother Hattie D., and a sister Annie D.  Next door to them is another Hackney family, quite possibly her grandmother.  Leona was 12 years old in this census, and from looking at the photo she may be just a little younger than that, possibly 5 to 8 years of age, placing this photo in the 1873-1876 range.

Gentleman of about 30-40 years of age.  Photo taken by D.W. Van Riper of Columbus, Georgia.

"With love to Aunt Lucy from Frances M. Allen taken at the age of 4 mos."  Photo was taken by H. Rocher of Chicago.  A look at the 1880 Cook County, Illinois census finds a 9 year old Frances Allen living with parents, Robert [47] & Abbie [35].  Four other siblings are Mary [11], Abbie [7], Lilly [3], and Edward [5/12].

Gentleman about 30-40 years of age.  Photo taken by S.M. Fassett of 122 & 124 Clark St., Chicago, Illinois.

This is a scan of one of the album pages that had writing on it, but is illegible by me.  One of the lettered photos below may have belonged in this page.

Gentleman of about 30-40 years of age.  This is just a slip of paper, the backing has fallen off, an extra backing was found in the album, but I am not sure if it belongs to this photo.  The photographer on the backing was Moore & Co. of Columbus, Georgia.  Looking closely at this photo, you will notice that this gentleman is holding a book.  That book is identical to the photo album these photos came out of.

Young man about 20-30 years of age, strongly resembles the man shown below.

Do not believe that this is a family member, quite possibly it's a "filler photo" like you would find upon purchasing a wallet or picture frame.
