Scope and Contents note
Comprised of [xxxx] Items, including: carte de visites, stereoviews, prints, 35mm slides, negatives and photographic postcards dated [xxxx-xxxx]. The majority of the Items are of members of the four main families (Pettit, Duncan, Gibson, and Foster) featured in the collection including Items of: H. Foster Pettit, Elizabeth D. F. Pettit, William Pettit II, Addison G. Foster II, Harrison G. Foster, Elizabeth D.G. Foster, Hart G. Foster, Col. (Nathaniel) Hart Gibson, Mary (Duncan) Gibson, Henry T. Duncan, and Tobias Gibson to name a few. Moreover, there are noteworthy photographs of: Isaac Murphy, Ingleside (Gibson/Foster family residence in Lexington, Ky.), Items from the the Spanish-American War (in the Philippines), and early 20th century Alaska, Hawaii, and Japan.
The photographic series is organized into seven subseries: Duncan family, Foster family General, General photo albums, Gibson family, Ingleside, and Pettit family. Within in the family subseries, there are further subseries which are arranged by individual family member (e.g. in the Foster family subseries, there is a sub-subseries for Addison G. Foster II, Harrison G. Foster, etc.).
Also, because Ingleside was at various times occupied by members of the Duncan, Gibson, and Foster families, all three families also have Items under that subseries. Moreover, because the families themselves related, there is a lot of crossover among the subseries.

Scope and Contents note
This file consists of a series of negative strips. The original strips contained all frames, but were later cut into strips of six frames or less (e.g. an orignal strip might have consisted of 40 frames, but were cut into frames of six or less).
Some of the negative strips were not in chronological order; in these cases strips each frame range has a number in parenthesis next to it designating the order in which the frames were arranged. (e.g. In file Unidentified city in Europe I, the strip started with frames 16-21. Thus next to the title for frames 16-21 is (1), meaning that these frames were the first six on the strip.)
