- Title
- Mary Louise Heinrich c. 1863
- Description
- This carte de visite captures a young Mary Heinrich (1853–1926) during her childhood, likely in the mid-1860s. Born in Eden, New York, to Jean-George Heinrich and Salome Wohlhuter, Mary was a member of the prominent Heinrich family, another foundational lineage of the Water Valley area. This portrait captures her in the striped dress and simple hairstyle typical of the mid-Victorian era, years before she would marry George 'Henry' Haushalter in 1877. This image serves as a poignant visual record of the era when these families were establishing the social and agricultural fabric of Erie County, documenting a life that began in Eden and eventually helped shape the legacy of the Haushalter farm for generations to come.
