I've "rescued" an old photograph of H. E. HOLMES which was taken at the LaRoche Studio in Seattle, Washington. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's with Mr. HOLMES likely in his 40's at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I believe that this is likely a photograph of Henry E. HOLMES who was recorded in both the 1900 and 1910 census living in Seattle, WA. 1900 census records for Seattle, WA include the family as follows: Henry E. HOLMES, age 50, born June 1849, married 23 years, born WI, parents born CT, a Druggist Kate T. HOLMES, wife, age 47, born Sept 1852, married 23 years, 6 children/5 living, born WI, parents born NY Helen P. HOLMES, dau, age 21, born Oct 1878, born WA Ruth S.

HOLMES, son, age 12, born May 1888, born WA, at School Cordelia A. HINGATE, servant, age 20, born May 1880, born KY, parents born KY, a Domestic 1910 census records for Seattle, WA include the family as follows: Henry E. HOLMES, age 60, married 32 years, born WI, parents born CT, a Drug Merchant Kate T. HOLMES, wife, age 57, married 32 years, 6 children/5 living, born WI, parents born NY Ruth D. HOLMES, dau, age 29, born WI Sarah E. HOLMES, dau, age 24, born WA James S. HOLMES, son, age 21, born WA, a Drug Company Accountant Alice M. PEDDIWORD, boarder, age 22, born OR, parents born IL/OR, a Private Family Nurse Nellie WARD, servant, age 15, born WA, parents birth unknown, a Private Family Servant I am hoping to locate someone from the family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to their care. If you are a member of this family, or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley
