I recently came into possession of an old photo album that I believe contains pictures of the Raven Family of the St Lawrence County NY area (I believe the items date to between 1880-1925). The album contains 24 photographs and two memorial cards. The memorial cards are for Nancy R. (Wright) Raven (1832-1888), wife of Abraham C. Raven (and daughter-in-law of Peter G. Raven (1786-1877)). The other memorial card is for Mrs. Fred Raven (which would be Clara Day). Fred was the son of Abraham.
Of the 24 photos, only one is marked. It is of Albert Stanley Raven at the age of 6 months. He is a great-great grandson of Peter G. Raven (Peter-> David G.-> David G, II -> Clark -> Albert Stanley).
The other pictures are mainly from the Gouverneur NY area though there are also four from Ogdensburg NY (and I do find some of the Raven's there in 1900), two are from Jackson Michigan (and one of the Raven's was there in 1880), one is from Utica NY and one is from Antwerp NY.
I'd love it if someone can tell me who some of these people are. The pictures are generally in excellent condition, though the album itself is somewhat falling apart.
I have created a page with links to scans of each photograph in the album (and the memorial cards) and put it on my webpage:

Its about 2/3 of the way down, in a new section called Photographs.
I look forward to hearing from anyone with info on these folks.
Thanks,
Anne Cady
