Alice Kennedy Eagan (1870-1955) was born in Ohio in 1870, and moved to Fort Sill in the Oklahoma Territory in the 1890s, collecting cabinet cards of local Native American tribes and non-native Fort Sill soldiers and civilians while there. She later received her nursing degree in San Francisco, California in 1904, met and married James E. Eagan in Nevada in 1907, and eventually moved to Columbia County, Wisconsin in 1908. She raised her family there and remained in Wisconsin for the rest of her life, passing away in 1955 at the age of 85.
George Anthony Addison (1853-1937) was a photographer who operated studios in Texas and the Oklahoma Territory from the early 1880s until approximately 1907. Addison operated studios in Taylor and Georgetown near Autsin, Texas, Norcona in northern Texas, Wheeler County in the Texas Panhandle, and from 1890 to 1895, in the Fort Sill, Oklahoma Territory area. He passed away and was buried in the town of Canadian, Oklahoma in 1937.
