Martin M. Hazeltine
Martin M. Hazeltine made his living almost entirely as a photographer, though he did briefly try mining. He traveled widely, photographing scenes from Yosemite to Idaho to Alaska. During the 1860s and 1870s he was based mainly in California.
He marketed many of his images as stereoviews, both on his own and through publishers such as John Soule of Boston, Thomas Houseworth of San Francisco, and Kilburn Bros. of New Hampshire. In 1885 he moved to Baker City, Oregon, where he established "Hazeltine's Excelsior Studio".
In 1888, Martin was assisted at fairs near Baker City by a young boy, Wesley Andrews, who later became a well-known photographer and postcard maker in the Northwest. Other photographers who worked with Hazeltine were Miss Josephine Rea and Miss Rata Allen.
Martin Hazeltine died in Baker City in about 1903.
