Little Hattie Rose, from Douglas County - c. 1887

The first child of proud parents William and Henrietta Rose, Hattie grew up on the family farm in Douglas County, Oregon. Perhaps her first portrait, this photo was created by Thomas Houghton, a photographer based in Portland, who advertised that he traveled throughout Oregon and Washington Territory. He's done a great job here capturing the charm of Hattie - not to mention her shoes... -- This photo is restored and printed by Old Oregon.
