The Gross Band

This photo was taken about 1900-1910 by a photographer in Paw Paw, West Virginia, and possibly at the tannery ... the exterior of this building resembles the tannery. The gentleman with the accordion is Perry Gross, who spent his adult life in Cumberland, Maryland.

Benjamin HARDEN et al

When, where, and why this group photo was taken is unknown.

Benjamin HARDEN is on the stairs. He is the gentleman with a moustache and has his left hand resting on his knee, the other on the railing. [He may have been born in 1871.]

The man sitting directly in front of him was his brother, Lee HARDEN. For some reason, Lee was not well liked by the rest of the family, and that is why his face is scratched out of the photo.
