Sycamore (IL) School 1892

Posted on by

This wonderful photo is in poor condition. I posted this several years ago, but I think these photos are better.

A note on the back (written recently) says Sycamore Illinois about 1892.

A name at the top left is _nna Tepson, maybe Anna. The name at the top right is Prof. A. J. Blanchard.

Some of the student names are readable on the left. Those at the bottom, not so legible. But I can see my grandfather’s name, Amos Claycomb. He would have been six years old in 1892.

This looks like Amos Claycomb

  3. You describe this as a “wonderful photo in poor condition.” That’s true, but the best part is none of the damage to the photo affected the faces. But it is too bad to have lost some of the writing on the bottom. Great photo!
