Summary[edit]

Description

The next 9 photographs are from an album acquired by Bob Blatchford (1932-2015) at an auction in Chicago. Their date, 1908, indicates that they were taken by a very early guest at Bon Echo Inn.

Dr. Weston Price, the original builder of the Inn, still owned it in 1908. Was he also a photographer? Or is it possible that the people in the photos were Flora MacDonald Denison and two of her friends? Prior to Flora buying the Inn in 1910, she had purchased a cottage on Mazinaw Lake south of the Inn where she and her family spent summer holidays. There are many interesting questions left to ask, and to answer.

This album of photos includes some of the oldest known photos of Bon Echo.

You can view several of the original photos at the Cloyne Pioneer Museum which have been arranged in a tribute frame. A photo of the tribute to Bob Blatchford appears later in our Photostream.
