 | Drug Store of John Mason Rudolph (1860-1900)
Located on the NW corner of S 10th & Mifflin Streets, Philadelphia, PA. |
 | The Rudolph Family in approximately 1895
Back of photo: In the handwriting of Robert Erskine Rudolph (b. 1912): Daddy, His Father, Grandma, Bert
Ernest John Rudolph (Daddy) is standing at the back left; his brother Robert Erskine Rudolph (Bert) is seated on the steps; their parents Emma Louise Erskine and John Mason Rudolph are on the right; the other two women have not been identified.
Bert Erskine Rudolph was born in 1890. His father John Mason Rudolph died in 1900. So the photo was taken in the 1890s. Bert looks to be about five years old in the photo, so the photo could have been taken around 1895.
Elizabeth Jane Thorpe recalls that they had a summer beach cottage on the shore at Asbury Park in the New Jersey Pine Barrons. This photo might be it.
