Several years age (2003) I tried to establish the time period for the Keagey studios in Shenandoah as I also have some family pictures from there. Unfortunately, mine are neither identified (they are probably my Horlacher or Koch family from Ringtown)or dated. W.A.Keagey was located at 112 W Coal Street in Shenandoah. I was able to make contact with another researcher who was interested in Schuylkill Co photographers. He was able to access a book (I don't have the title) that listed Pa photographers. The book was not very good but did list Keagey as being in Shenandoah 1890-91. These dates were probably taken from a city directory. My contact said he checked the 1900 census and found that Keagey was no longer in Shenandoah at that time. This doesn't help too much but does establish that the pictures were probably taken before 1900. Have you tried contacting the Schuylkill County Historical Society? This is something I should have done myself but neglected to do. They may have more information. Hope this helps a little.
