Fannie Mead Biddick was H. H. West's first cousin and William Biddick was her husband. Edith Parsons (Edith Louise Parsons Pettitt) was H. H. West's first cousin once removed.
Walter Biddick drinks a soda standing on a front lawn. His eyes are squeezed closed. He wears a shirt with a collar and suspenders. There is a woman standing in the background at the left. There are trees, houses, and a dirt road beyond Walter.
Man and woman sitting in a wooded area. The man wears a hat and holds what may be a can. His legs are crossed. The woman has her hands in her lap. There are trees behind them. They sit on what appears to be a small bench. The negative is hazy making the image difficult to see.
Steamboat on the Mississippi River. Men stand on the shore and walk on planks of wood that are piled up by the boat. There is a carriage at the left. Steam billows out of the boat. A sign on the side reads, in part, "...Quincy & Keokuk... Line... Saint Paul."
Two men sit at a table holding drinks while another man stands behind them. The men who are sitting wear suits, while the standing man wears a bowtie. The table is round and there are papers on top of it along with some sort of wrapped package. The men may be in a restaurant, though the negative is foggy making the image difficult to see.
Photograph, from left to right, of Henry Lemberger and Fred Lemberger sitting by a Parrott gun in Crapo Park. Henry holds an umbrella across his lap as he sits on a wooden beam behind the cannon. Fred sits, legs crossed, on a wooden beam near the back end of the cannon. The cannon behind them is pointed out towards the right and overlooks the Mississippi River. It is surrounded with wooden beams and supports that the Lemberger men sit upon. The entirety of the cannon sits atop a planked wooden surface that is flush with the ground. The Mississippi River can be seen in the background on the right and disappears behind the cannon as it approaches the center of the image. The eastern bank (Illinois) of the Mississippi River is visible in the distance.
