The following photographs were taken by William Manthey, Daniel Manthey, Reb Manthey, or Christopher Sewall using a variety of cameras. Newspapers were scanned by David Manthey. Click on an image to see a larger version.
These pictures were largely taken by my father and brother, and therefore are subject to their whim of the moment. I only identify a particular person or unit if I think I know the subject of the photograph. Additional information is welcome.
