    1. [ILJODAVI] Photographers Frank Kolb in Elizabeth, IL
    2. Marjorie Smith
    3. In the Weekly Galena Gazette for April 22, 1887, in the column from the Elizabeth Correspondent. It says "F. J. Kolb, artist, is having his gallery painted." The 1889 Portrait & Biographical HIstory has a bio of John B. Kolb, father of Frank Kolb. It says that son Frank is a photographer in Elizabeth. I think Kolb photographed the first train coming into Elizabeth. Frank J. Kolb's grave is in the St. Marys Cemetery, 1860 - 1931. I do not know anything about a photographer named Leonard. I'm slowing copying out these columns "From the Elizabeth Correspondents" in the Galena Gazette. These are great as to who built what, who visited whom, who is ill, etc. etc. When I get some done, I'll send them to webmaster Cheryl Hemingway to put on the site. Marjorie Smith
