Three Smith & Price studio photographs, circa 1900-1910. All three came from the same source on Ebay.These may be high school graduation photographs.
Only one has a name written on the back:
Bessie.
In 1900, there were 70 women listed in the census under the name "Bessie." It is also possible that Bessie is a nickname for Elizabeth or Beatrice.
The other two photographs are unidentified.
