Abt 1888, W.A. Keeler was in Brownwood, Texas and he sent this photo album to his mother, Mary Ann
"Polly" Baker Keeler in Sevier Co TN. He moved back to TN at some point after his divorce from Nancy C. Fox and
the album came back into his possession after Polly died. I am uploading the photos from this album in the order they
appear, including the backs of some that have identifying marks or writing on them. Most of these photos have not been identified.
Some of these people may be members of the connected families of Fox, Baker, Duggan,Webb, Derrick, Shrader, Bird, Proffitt,
and Sims, or possibly others, associated with the Keelers in both Tennessee and Texas.

Could be John Duggan Keeler |

We believe it is possible that this was Samuel Preston
Keeler, since the photo next to it in the album is Samuel's son, Albert Edwin Keeler.

Albert E. Keeler - Texas |
Albert Edwin Keeler was born 30 Jan 1879, son of Samuel Preston Keeler and Martha
Elizabeth Seward. In order to lighten the photo enough to see Albert's face, the paper border around the photo appears much
lighter than it actually is, and the writing at the bottom is washed out. But it clearly says Albert E. Keeler Texas.
