About this photograph

This photograph shows Norton Tharp and Mary Work on their wedding day in Porterville, California, around 1900. The photographer is not recorded.

Porterville lies in Tulare County in the San Joaquin Valley, a region that attracted substantial settlement in the late nineteenth century as irrigated farming took hold.

The archive holds this image as part of a collection from the Tulare County library, which preserves photographs of local residents and families rather than prominent figures. It reached wider public access through California Revealed, a programme that digitises historical material from libraries and historical societies across the state.

Compiled from the catalogue record and reference notes on the formats and events involved. The archive record above is the primary source.
