Pictures of James Griffing and
Augusta Goodrich
There are only two pictures with James and Augusta appearing
together. The first is their wedding photograph. The second was taken
approximately twenty years later in which a good friend and neighbor, Mrs.
Pound, appears with them. There are only
two solo images of James. The first was taken in the summer of 1852 just prior
to his graduation from Wesleyan University. The second was taken about 1880.
There are three solo images of Augusta; none are
dated. The first of these was probably taken in late 1864 while Augusta visited
with family ad friends in Owego, New York. The second was either taken in early
1865 before she left Owego to return to Kansas, or was taken a year or two later
on a subsequent visit. The last image was taken in Topeka and probably dates to
about 1870.
