From: "Kenneth Whitney" <klw1 -at- starpower.net> Subject: Re: [WHITNEY-L] Whitney, Joel b. 1822 Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2002 21:00:31 -0500 References: <[email protected]> WRG: The Joel E. Whitney mentioned in this citation is Joel Emmons Whitney, born in Phillips, Somerset Co., Maine 18 May 1822. His ancestry line is John1, Benjamin2, Nathaniel3, Abel4, Micah5, Joel6, Joel E.7. Joel Emmons Whitney was Minnesota's leading pioneer photographer. This past winter Rebecca Whitney-Smith was kind enough to pass on to me the fact that the Minnesota Historical Photo Collector's Group has just published a catalogue of many of Joel's photographs, which were taken in the 1860's. I have purchased one of the catalogues. The catalogue contains reproductions of Cartes de Viste photographs of Native Americans of Minnesota, as well as landscape views of frontier Minnesota. I will bring the catalogue with me to the reunion this summer in case anyone is interested in seeing it. If you are interested in purchaing a copy, I can lead you to the vendor.
