"Mary Woodhouse," a photograph by Rufus W. Holsinger taken on November 19, 1914.

A Mary Woodhouse is listed in the Charlottesville City Directory, 1914-15; it may or may not be the same woman as in the portrait below: "Woodhouse Mary, maid h[ome] Grady Ave n[ear] 10 1/2 N W" (p.197).

Additional information about Mary Woodhouse will be added as it is researched.

NOTE that the name with which the portrait is labelled (or, labelled "untitled") is not necessarily the name of the sitter(s) photographed, but rather the name of the person who paid for it when it was taken (the date and name associated with each photograph is from the business ledgers of R. W. Holsinger).
