About this photograph
E. E. McVeagh, a resident of Visalia, was photographed by E. M. Davidson around 1888.
Visalia is the seat of Tulare County, which lies in California's San Joaquin Valley. The region saw substantial settlement in the late nineteenth century as farming expanded, sustained by irrigation systems that made agriculture viable in the valley.
The photograph comes from the Tulare County Library's local history collection, which documents ordinary residents and community life rather than prominent public figures. The collection was digitised through California Revealed, a statewide program that makes historical material from libraries and local institutions accessible online.
Nothing further is known about E. E. McVeagh from the available record.
