About this photograph

William J. Fewel was an oil developer living in Visalia, California, photographed around 1888 by E.M. Davidson.

Visalia lies in Tulare County, part of California's San Joaquin Valley. The valley saw heavy settlement in the late nineteenth century and became a major farming region sustained by irrigation.

The photograph comes from Tulare County Library's local history collection, which concentrates on ordinary residents, families, schools and businesses from the area rather than prominent public figures.

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