The Victorian Photograph album belonged to S. Noble and Louise Loomis and includes their parents J. Otis and Caroline(Storrs) Freeman and Charles and Frances(Edgerton) Loomis as well as many other family members. There is a very rare photograph of the home of Charles and Frances Loomis which was later destroyed by fire. The collection also includes the earliest known photo of the home of S. Noble and Louise Loomis at 1747 Boston Tnpk perhaps taken about 1886 which includes the family (two of their small children are in the photo, the men are wearing top hats). Thereafter photographs of the family are sporadic and often not of great quality. Professional wedding photographs of Sylvia and Thomas McKinney and Clara Hutt and school photos of Priscilla and Bruce Hutt help document the family. Oversized photographs of the McKinney Farm, Clara Hutt's Wedding photo and the ceremony honoring John Hutt's college graduation and his WWII Service can be found in box 9. Related photographs can be found in the CHS Archives, under collection # 1223, #1460, #1582, #2193, and #2432.
