    1. [TXTRAVIS] AUSTIN PHOTOS
    2. jmcgavic
    3. In 1967, I found a photo album in Austin, Texas.  I came across this album in an attic of an old apartment building, possibly on N. Lamar or Burnet road.  The photos are no longer in the album, but most of the thirty photos are in excellent condition.  There are only a few names on the photos but there are many studio names and locations associated with these photos.  The centralized locale of where these photos were taken would suggest that these people lived in the area along the once famous Chislm Trail. The photos are likely from the mid to late 1800’s and a few from the early 1900’s.   I would like to find the family of these photos.  Please Contact Me If These Names Are Part Of Your Family.   PERSONS NAMES: Briant  or Broint Wilson, Bill Facing/Forcing (hard to read---it is a tintype photo and it was with others that are from Shelbyville Kentucky---Taken by a J W Williams photographer). Mrs. Doodie Speakes or Speaker, photographer is Chambers in Brownwood Texas. A photo of a teenage girl with three other children.  The names on the back are May, Bennie,  ??re, and Minnie.   PLACE NAMES AND PHOTOGRAPHERS/STUDIO   Brownwood TX   Schneider and Smith Photography   M.
