COOL LONG HAIRED MAN IN FARIBAULT, MINNESOTA (WILLIE NELSON TYPE)

This Cabinet Card photograph is an image of a very interesting looking man. His long hair and beard makes him look like Willie Nelson. This gentleman is from Faribault, Minnesota; or perhaps he was from elsewhere and just “on the road again”. The photographic studio was Peavey and Peterson of Faribault, Minnesota. Louis Peavey (c1832-1902) was a photographer active in Decorah, McGregor, and Ossion, Iowa (1864-1870). He opened a studio in Faribault, Minnesota in 1870 and partnered with Christian Peterson in about 1878 until near the end of the 1890’s.

      Thank you for your comment. It will be very difficult to identify the subjects of your photographs. I would recommend that you
      contact the historical society in Fairbolt, Minnesota. It is possible that they have photographs of their own in which the subjects are identified. It is possible that one or more of them may match the subjects in your photos. Not all that likely, but worth the effort.
