  • Old photographs
  • Posted: 2010-04-17 13:51:01 PDT By allen d. whitehead
  • Hello,

    My grandfather, John Benson Whitehead was a photographer. He got his first camera from selling bluing from a magazine when he was 16 and living on the family homestead (Joseph B. and Sarah E. Whitehead) on the Dungeness river. His sister, Ina Whitehead, was a school teacher who taught at Chimacum, "Seguen", and Beaver. Between the two, I have inherited many pictures which I would like to share with you. I have a fairly good scanner and can convey them electronically if you will instruct me where to send them.
    Sincerely,
    Allen Whitehead

  • Did you receive the photos I sent you? I sent a quite large attachment of them to you about 5 days ago.

  • Hi Allen:
    Yes, we received the photos and your information. Thank you so much!
    We had a major project here that went into the mail yesterday--hopefully, I will be able to get back to answering queries more promptly.
