E L Adams of Rockwall, TX

photographer: E L Adams
Rockwall, TX
example from LOST GALLERY

Facts on Ellis L Adams were scarce. Only a few documents and no newspaper items were found to outline his history as a photographer. Below is a timeline of what has been found so far. Suggestions and contributions are welcome.

Ellis L Adams
(1870-1960)

1870 Dec 08
From Death Certificate; Birth Month according to 1900 Census Dec 1861;
1880 Jun 04
McLennan, TX, US census, Ellis Adams at age 9
1898 Nov 06
Rockwall, TX, state records, Ellis Adams and Annie Atherton are married
1900 Jun 15
Greenville, TX, US census, Ellis Adams as photographer; res Templeton Av. (age is miss-stated at 38, sh/be 28; wife Anne age 19)
1902 Aug 15
Greenville, TX, state records, Son Everett Leroi Adams is born

1910 Apr 18
Altus, OK, US census, Ellis Adams as “Owner of photograph gallery”; age given as 38; res North Grady Street
1920 Jan 05
Duke, OK, US census, Ellis Adams as General Farming
1925 Jul 25
Duke, OK, state records, son Everett Adams and Mildred Darby are married
1930
1930, US census. Ellis Leroi Adams was not found with search, line by line of Duke, OK and Rufigo, TX

Austin, TX, city directory, Ellis L Adams at 3407 Robinson, no occupation shown
1960 Feb 02
Austin, TX, death certificate, Ellis L Adams dies at age 89, listed as “shoemaker”

So it can be said that Ellis Adams was photographer in Rockwall, TX, Altus, OK, and Greenville, TX, between 1900 and 1910, perhaps three or four years before and after. In the 1920 census, he is listed as a Farmer. After that, he became a cobbler and followed that profession for the balance of his business life. It appears he retired from business after about 1947.

Manoah Henry Eberhart

Photographer: M. H. Eberhart
Traveling Photographer, Texas

Manoah Henry Eberhart ( 1831 - 1910)

M. H. Eberhart was 30 years older than most of the other cabinet card era photographers.

M. H. Eberhart’s son Ira A. Eberhart (1859-1953) is listed as “photographer” in the 1880 US Census and the 1885 Iowa Census but beginning with the 1900 US Census, his profession is shown as physician for the rest of his life. Early on, he was probably only assisting his father.

According to many records M. H. Eberhart lived in Pennsylvania, Illinois and Iowa. The only challenge left is to calculate when he was in Texas for the photograph at the left. And, when was he there long enough to have cabinet card blanks printed with “Texas” in the lower right corner.

Oddly, he is not picked up in any city directory and only one Iowa Gazetteer. This could mean possibly that his residence was always outside of the city limits. No newspaper items or advertisements were found.

Timeline:
1831 Jan 17
Born in Hickory, Mercer, Pennsylvania
1856 Nov 06
Marriage to Mary Elizabeth Briscoe (1835-1920) in La Porte, Indiana
1860

Deane Brothers

The Brothers Deane

Photographer: Deane
300 Elm St. Dallas

It appeared at first that Deane the photographer was a restless traveler appearing all over Texas for several decades. After documenting a family tree around one of them, it shows that there were four brothers, all photographers, all mostly working in and around Texas.

Deane appears often in the Texas newspaper items and ads but these seldom include first name or initials making it difficult to establish which brother was where and when.
The following timeline is constructed of newspaper dates and places, US census, city directories and some other Vital Documents. This should help separate and trace the brothers. They also worked together on occasion so the name “Deane” on a cabinet card might be any one of them.

Added to each timeline event is a first name if available. If the first name is in parentheses then it is a speculation based on other items.
Clarence Curtis Deane (1852 - 1948)
Martin Otis Deane (1854 - 1914)
Granville M. Deane (1858 - 1949)

No exact death date on Jervis CS has been found

Jervis Deane seems to have been centered mostly in Waco, TX, moving to El Paso, TX, later in life.

Granville M Dean worked mostly in Dallas, TX, but apparently had a shop also in Galveston, TX, in 1886 - 1888. Brother Jervis worked with him as retoucher.

Clarence Curtis Dean was the one in Beaumont, Galveston and Houston, TX.

Martin Otis worked in Fort Worth, TX, 1891-1896 and seems to have worked with a brother, mostly Granville Otis Deane in Dallas and Jervis Deane in Waco, but that is partly speculation.

The cabinet card here was probably done in 1897 in that short time that Martin Otis Deane had a studio at 300 Elm, Dallas, TX.

To the right: Jervis Deane loses an eye while photographing a staged train wreck.

Jervis CS Dean and Martin Otis Deane often placed as many as fifteen small ads in one issue of their local newspaper. Example below.

Reverse of the cabinet card at the left

The cabinet card at the left must have been done when the Deane's were established in Kansas City, MO, 1880 - 1885. After they moved to Texas about 1886, no records reflect that any of them ever returned to Missouri.

The Deane brother that worked in Memphis, TN, was Martin Otis Dean. According to the city directories of the time he was in Memphis from 1891 through 1893. The 1894 Memphis city directory says only: "removed to Fort Worth"

Compare the name design to the imprint on the card from Kansas City, MO, just above.

David Perry Barr
Born April 16, 1839 in Ohio, to John H. Barr & Mary Jane Allender Barr in Ohio.
1850 Census shows he lived in Lexington, Stark Co., OH — This census has limited information. David’s parents live with his paternal grandparents, David Barr age 68 & Mary Barr age 65. Also in the home is an Alexander Barr age 39, another son of David and Mary. David’s father is John age 27, and mother aged, David himself age 11, a twin sister Elizabeth age 11 and a younger sister Mary age 4. The census taker did not make the first “r” of Barr well. causing transcription to be typed as Baer. John is listed as female and David is as well, but when tallying the page the counter caught and corrected David to male but failed to catch John.

An Ancestry chart has the parents of David as Robert R. and Elizabeth Young, but David’s death certificate agrees with the 1850 census of John and Mary. Robert R. and Elizabeth were David’s uncle and aunt.
