This cozy family home was built by lumberman and politician Hyrcanus and his wife Ella Blackman in 1878. Where they raised their two children, Clifford and Eunice, and where both Clifford and his father passed away within months of each other in 1920-21. Eunice lived in this house with her husband Dr. William Ford, and sold it to the Snohomish Historical Society in 1970, four years before her death. The Museum features two floors of objects which were original to the Blackman Family or donated by the families of other early Snohomish settlers.

Hello There --

Inspired by the photos in "Maritime Memories of Puget Sound" for the 'Gallery' Gilbert Horton and other photographers had, I designed and built my own floating photography studio. I wouild very much like to get a nice print of the photo you used to annoucnce the show of Horton's photos at the Blackman House Museum -- the postcard sent out in May -- I wonder, also, if there are any other images of the orignial 'Gallery.'

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks!   Peter Fromm
