About this photograph
The archive record names this as the Patterson family home, photographed around 1900, with four family members identified as Edna, Lou, Fred, and Beth. The photographer was not recorded. The image shows the group standing outside a two-story residence.
This photograph reached the Internet Archive through California Revealed, a statewide digitisation programme. California Revealed processes material from libraries, archives, museums and historical societies throughout California and makes it available online. Because the programme draws on many separate local institutions, items sharing this route come from different collections across the state rather than a single source.
The record offers no further detail about the Patterson family, their location, or the circumstances of the photograph. The caption describes it as historic and lists it among architectural images as well as family portraits.
Compiled from the catalogue record and reference notes on the formats and events involved. The archive record above is the primary source.
