Cathy,
Some of the state censuses are stored at the state archives. If you go to their website and look under their circulars, they have one for state censuses and this shows which ones they have.

I start with a grandparent and then do their parents and their siblings and then work my way back. I am almost finished with my 3rd album.

Rene,
I have seen some articles on David O'killia in the New England Historical and Genealogical Register about 1997. David lived in Massachusetts and my line of ancestors ended up moving to Rhode Island and then Vermont.

The curly bangs came into style in 1876 and went out in the mid 1880's and the neckline fits this time period as well. A plainer neckline came into fashion about 1884. Fargo, D. T. probably stands for Fargo, Dakota Territory.

Dear Bridget,
I am sorry to post this so long after but I have had a lot going on. The fist picture is probably after 1900 but I am going to look at some of my books that I have elsewhere. The second picture is actually older. The leg of mutton…
Laressa Northrup replied to Rachel Monroe's discussion '2 more photos.' in the group Lost Faces: Ancestor Photos & Albums
Rachel,
The second photo is typical of clothing in the early 1860's. I have a picture in one of my clothing books that shows almost the identical suit dated 1860.
Sincerly,
Laressa Northrup
Laressa Northrup replied to Pam Shakespeare's discussion 'Another photo I need to work out the year on' in the group Lost Faces: Ancestor Photos & Albums
I looked at my books and the hat style went out by about 1905. I found a dress and a hat much like she was wearing dated 1901. However the fashion was very similar from about 1897-1905. So I would date it during this time period.
