Bangs Studio in Sleepy Eye, Minnesota. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1890's with Mr. JAMES likely in his 40's at the time it was taken. A ghosted image of two children appears on the back of the photograph, likely caused by two photographs being stored tightly together over time. Based on limited research I believe that this may be a photograph of Frederick P. JAMES who lived in Sleepy Eye during the 1900 census. Census records provide the following information regarding the man and his family: Frederick P. JAMES, age 40, born Mar 1860, married 7 years, born MI, parents born NY/MI, a Dentist Lucia JAMES, wife, age 40, born Nov 1860, married 7 years, 5 children/4 living, born NY, parents born NY Florence ROUNDS, step-dau, age 12, born Nov 1887, born MN, parents born MN/NY, at School William ROUNDS, step-son, age 10, born Sept 1889, born MN, parents born MN/NY, at School Fred JAMES, son, age 5, born Jan 1895, born MN, at School Harriet JAMES, dau, age 3, born Oct 1896, born MN Sophia JENSEN, servant, age 15, born Aug 1884, born MN, parents born Denmark/WI, a Housekeeper Nina HANIM, boarder, age 30, born Dec 1869, married 3 years, no children, born MN, parents born MN/NY, a Nurse In 1910 the family is still living in Sleepy Eye, MN with census records providing the following information; Frank P.
