5W Wednesdays, from Historic Saranac Lake

Historic Saranac Lake needs your help identifying the who, what, where, when and/or why of this photo. We have been scouring our collection in search of pet photographs for our upcoming exhibit, and we have found a few mysteries along the way! This photograph was taken by TB patient Charles Swasey Barnet, and shows Mrs. Jones along with dogs Kim, Betsy and Easter. Barnet labeled his photographs very well, but this one does not say where it was taken! Do you recognize any of the houses behind this charming group? Let us know by calling the museum at 518-891-4606 or emailing mail@historicsaranaclake.org. You can also find out more about our upcoming Pet Portraits exhibit on our website: historicsaranaclake.org/pet-portraits-then-and-now/ (Photo provided — Historic Saranac Lake Collection, 2024.1.448.85.
