I was on a "romp" through Franklin County and came upon an antique store where I stopped to look for possible old abandoned pictures of Franklin County families. Below is what I found. If these are your family, please contact me at denmother4@hotmail.com. I would love to put these in the rightful owners hands.

Reverend Love & Family

Notes on the flap of this picture has the following names; Louis Sr., Elvin, Louis Jr., Lawrence, Lyle, Edith, Aunt Dora (possibly had a twin Cora)

Recently I went to an Estate Sale in Kennewick (Benton County) just on the other side of the river from Pasco (Franklin County). The name "Bissell" appeared in many places, however I can not be sure that these pictures are connected with the Bissell name. They could be. Please contact me at denmother4@hotmail.com if you believe these pictures belong to you.

	Only notation is "18 years old".		CLAIMED Emery, Minnie & Harold Bissell.
	No notes. The studio signature is "The Kennewick Studio, Kennewick, Washington".		No notes. This picture is nicely framed with paper backing.

These beautiful painted portraits were also found at an Estate Sale in Kennewick. The frames had been sold, but the pictures were to be thrown away. Please contact me at denmother4@hotmail.com if you can connect to these pictures.
