Rynald H Krumhar

photographer: Turton
operator: R H Krumhar
376 Pearl, Cleveland, OH
example from LOST GALLERY
reverse of card at left

Krumhar timeline reworked Sorting through the various spellings and MIS-spellings in Ryland Krumhar’s history was a challenge. While he and his family changed the spelling three, maybe four times, the media, census takers and record keepers also shuffled and changed the letters often. The continuity of his life in records was often traced through his profession, relatives and locations.

A. Husted

photographer: Husted and Co
Ridge Av and Wallace St, Philadelphia, PA
example from LOST GALLERY
reverse of card at left

On the reverse at the bottom one can see “A Husted and Jno G Cassebaum”. Annie Husted is the photographer here. Finding the family tree of a single woman in 1800’s Philadelphia, PA, is a task.

In the late 1890’s there was not much respect paid to single women, even those who ran a successful business. City directories rarely mention them unless they are somebody’s spouse or running a successful business. And sometimes, not even then.

The timeline here follows the address, 1344 Ridge Avenue, through its various incarnations. All listings are from city directories unless otherwise labeled.

1860
Annie was found in three US census reports, supported by listings with her brothers Joseph and William. In the 1900 and 1910 US census, the residence address 1522 Swain agrees with the city directory listings for the many years between 1870 and1910 with which she was associated.

In the 1900 and 1910 US census her birth year is given as 1860. In the 1880 census the birth year is given as 1852 which is probably a fib. She perhaps needed to seem older in order to maintain her job as “Clerk in a photograph gallery”.

1861
Philadelphia, PA, city directory, No photographer listing for Draper or Husted, Joseph Husted as Artist at 1247 Poplar
1863
Philadelphia, PA, city directory, Joseph Husted, photographist, 1327 Ridge; res 13th and Poplar
1864, 1865
Philadelphia, PA, city directory, brother Joseph Husted listed as photographer at 1327 Ridge; res 1247 Poplar (Apparently working FOR Edmund Draper)
1868
Philadelphia, PA, city directory, brother Joseph Husted listed as photographer with Draper and Husted (Edmund Draper and Joseph Husted) at 1344 Ridge; res 1522 Swain; An Annie Husted, no occupation shown, is listed, residence 253 Lybrand, probably not the correct Annie

1870
Philadelphia, PA, city directory, brother Joseph Husted listed as photographer with Draper and Husted (Edmund Draper and Joseph Husted) at 1344 Ridge; res 1522 Swain;
No Annie Husted listed
1871, 1872, 1874, 1875
Philadelphia, PA, city directory, brother Joseph Husted listed as photographer with Draper and Husted (Edmund Draper and Joseph Husted) at 1344 Ridge; res 1522 Swain)

An Annie Husted is listed these years as resident at 911 Morgan and “Widow of John (1874)” and “Widow of Edward (1875)” at 1500 Wood (probably not the correct Annie);

1876, 1877, 1878
Philadelphia, PA, city directory, Annie Husted NOT listed; brother Joseph Husted listed as photographer with Draper and Husted (Edmund Draper and Joseph Husted) at 1344 Ridge

1879
Philadelphia, PA, city directory, Annie Husted NOT listed; Brother Joseph Husted listed as photographer at 1344 Ridge, res 1522 Swain; Brother William is listed at same residence but as a meter maker
1880 Jun 05
Philadelphia, PA, US census, Annie Husted as “Clerk in Photograph Gallery; res 1522 Swain; Brothers Joseph and William both listed as photographer living at same address
1881 - 1888
Philadelphia, PA, city directory, Annie Husted NOT listed; no business pages those years;

During all of these years, except 1887, there is listed an Annie Husted, widow, as boarding at 911 Morgan or 533 Linden, but since Annie Husted, the photographer, never married and apparently never moved from 1522 Swain, this is probably not her. Of course, she could have SAID she was a widow, just to get listed in the directory. For a directory listing, a woman in those times had to be a wife or widow or sometimes the owner of a successful business.

Also, one must consider that generally city directory listings would be for “Anna” or “Ann” or “Anne” but seldom “Annie” unless requested that way.

Philadelphia, PA, city directory, ALL of these years, Joseph F Husted, Annie’s brother, is listed as photographer, 1344 Ridge; res 1522 Swain

All submissions should be free of glare and shadows. Do not crop. Leave a border around each card. The edges are sometimes an important clue to the age of the card.

Some examples on this page have been enhanced or restored for clarity and presentation here.

This page is free for educational and research purposes only but, as always, if the original owner of any of these examples objects to the use on this page, just let me know and they will be immediately removed.
