HOLGATE, Mrs. (Scranton PA)

MRS. HOLGATE

IDENTIFICATION ON PHOTO: "Mrs. Holgate"
PHOTO TAKEN: Machette & Bros. Studio, Scranton PA, circa 1888
PURCHASED: 2017 Aug Madison-Bouckville (NY) Antiques Week

Labeled simply "Mrs. Holgate", this photo appears to have taken around 1888. The photographers Machette & Bro. operated at 327 & 416 Lackawanna Ave, Scranton, PA, Frank and James B Machette Jr. 1884-1888.

The surname HOLGATE was a fairly common one in the Scranton area and surrounding communities.

Without a first name, or name of husband, this becomes rather difficult, and will require more research.
