Unidentified Photos

In accessioning our photographs, we often come across photos that are unlabeled. Can you help us identify any of these photos?  (Click on each image for a larger view.)

The following 4 photos (and the one above) are of an unknown church and came with the 2003.58 accession. Can you recognize the church? Where is it?

The following photo may be from the Faribault Regional Center, but we are not sure. It came from the 197?.01 accession.


This may be the Morristown Barber Shop. Do you know for sure? It came from the 199?.13 accession.

Is this a school or confirmation class? Is it at the west entrance of the Faribault Junior High School? It also came from the 199?.13 accession.

Does anybody know who this man is?

Unidentified Photos in a New Collection

We recently accepted a collection of images and books into the Rice County Historical Society Collection. Four of the images, however, were not identified. The donor was certain, however, they had some kind of Rice County connection.

Can you help us identify them?



 Group of soldiers, probably from World War I...but who are they?




This photo was taken in 1878 in Faribault, but who is he?


 Two beautiful Faribault women...who are they?


This home is believed to be in Rice County. Do you recognize it?
