The museum received a donation from the O'Grady estate many years ago of
a collection of negatives that had been created in the early 1900's by
John Laurence Molfino. Technology is now allowing us to digitize and share these unique
views of Benicia and Northern California from over a hundred years ago.
Few of the negatives though, give any indication of who is in the photo
let alone where or when they were taken. Our hope is that people in
the community can help us piece together a more complete picture of how
these photos fit into our regional history. Your personal knowledge, family stories, or historical research may be able to help us to regain these misplaced memories. The following pages contain photos from our collection for which we are
asking your help. There are several pages of photos about various
topics. Selecting one of the pages below will display a page of
thumbnail photos. Selecting any one of the thumbnails will bring
up an expanded view of that photo. If you have any additional
information about individuals in the photos or where or when the photo
may have been taken, please contact us. Below the expanded view is
a tab, "Image Feedback", that you can use to contact us and share your
information.
