  1. Those are cool! Thanks for sharing them!!!

  2. I believe the photographer of at least one of the pictures posted was my great-great grandfather, William Robert Abbott, who lived in Opelika. His son Walter Clarence,Sr., graduated Auburn and moved to Louisiana and became head of 4-H for the state. His son, W.C., Jr., was born in Opelika (possibly at the home of W.R. Abbott).
    William R.’s father was photographer Jacob Lord Abbott and his uncle was Jordan H.Abbott. Many of the photographs of these Abbott men can be found on Ebay and J.H. Abbott took many famous photos of Chicago after the great fire.

    1. Correction–William Robb Abbott (Not Robert)
