    3. I've "rescued" an old photograph album which originally belonged to Sadie LICHTY ROWLAND. The album includes the following people identified with full names and an additional group of photographs identified with only first names. In addition to the list of those who are fully identified I've included some of my limited research for each of them: 1 - Peter BEACHY which was taken at the Steffey Studio in Alliance, OH in the 1880's.
