Though many people may be familiar with Edna’s landscapes taken in and around Fair Haven, she took her camera with her on trips to other areas. If you can identify any of these places, let us know.

Main Street, Fair Haven, circa 1907 – These stores stood on the north side of Main Street at Fancher Avenue where the Bayside Grocery store is today. The Methodist church stood on the west side of Fancher Avenue. This photo was taken in the winter; now shovels and sleds can be seen in front of the Robinson & Philips Store on the right, along with small patches of snow.
Steam and Sails on Little Sodus Bay, circa 1909 – The west barrier bar is seen beyond these ships. The channel Range Light and Lighthouse are on the right.
“View up the bay from East Pier,” circa 1911 – Edna stood on the East Breakwater to capture this view of the Coal Trestle. She had views such as this printed as post cards with her name in the bottom left corner.
