- Description:
- This collection contains photographs which were possibly collected or donated by the Johns family of Lansing. James Johns was an early Lansing resident who operated a boot and shoe business on Washington with partner Rufus Bailey, and then a grocery business with partner Jeremiah Bunn. The Johns family appears in city directories throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries, usually at a residence on South Cedar Street near downtown Lansing. Among the 39 photographs are several tintypes. Only two of the photographs are identified. Many are formal studio portraits with dates of approximately 1865 to 1910. Some were taken outside of the Lansing area as noted by photographers' marks on the prints or frames.
