Snook Farm

View Item Record

Description:

The home on the Snook Farm with several unidentified individuals. The farm was located on the west side of Rochester Road at Avon Road. John J. Snook (1842-1923), Rochester's "poet laureate," owned this property, called Overlook. American flags can be seen adorning the porch of the residence, so it is possible that this photo was taken on the Fourth of July. (P-354) [date is approximate] Photograph Collection
