We found a document on Yellow Stone History. In it we found a list of concession buildings removed on Yellow Stone Park in the 1800s we found date lines for Mr.F.Jay Haynes activities at Yellow Stone.  Concerning this photo we found that he operated under this name "Haynes Palace Studio Car" in 1885 and discontinued in 1905.

Photographer:  J.P. Ball & Son, Helena, Montana

J.P. (JAMES PRESLEY) BALL

Ball (1825-1905) was born free in Virginia and opened a one-room photographer’s studio in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1845. Two years later he became a traveling daguerreotypist, and in 1849 he hired his brother Thomas to operate the Cincinnati business. Ball published a pamphlet in 1855 addressing the horrors of slavery, and he opened an exhibition of enslaved people's experience. In May 1860 the Ball and Thomas Photographic Art Gallery is destroyed by tornado, but rebuilt. After the Civil War, Ball moved to Minneapolis, where he opened his own studio. In 1887 he became the official photographer of the 25th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation held in Minneapolis. He kept moving further west, first to Helena, Montana, then at the turn of the century to Seattle, where he opened a studio under the name of Globe Photo Studio.  This text came from this site on History of Black Photographers.

If you have an interest in Naval Cadets, I heard that the Academy has on file all the photos of all the cadets that every graduated.  You could match his face to a photo with a name on it.  There may be a clue in this photo, an expert on uniforms may know his rank or year that uniform was in use. Below is the information found on the New York Historical Society site. We want to demonstrate  that you can research photographer's business records and figure when they occupied particular addresses in their career. The New York Historical Society apparently found their information from the photographers obituaries. There list of sitters and more, please see their site for more information on the brothers.

Photographer:  John D. Godeus, People's Art Gallery, 34 third St., San Francisco California

Photo Dating Note: notice fur cover

Of particular note is Mary Anna Clifton Godeus, a San Francisco photographer, whose career began in 1866 and spanned 35 years. At 16 years old she was married. At age 17 she was operating the South Park Photographic Gallery on Third Street with her husband John D. Godeus. They operated several galleries together until 1879. Godeus family lore suggests John then photographed prisoners for mug-shot books at San Quentin Prison. By 1890 the Godeuses were again operating a studio together until John's death in 1895. (Godeus Street was named in his honor.) Godeus took over with her daughter Mary Clara, also a photographer, continuing to operate the Godeus Art Studio on Sixth Street until at least 1901. There are over 60 surviving images from the Godeus studios. This came from "Women's Photography After the Gold Rush".
