Scope and Contents

These include Thomas L. Kane's father, John K. Kane, and many unnamed people who are presumably Kane or Wood family members. A single photograph depicts a living room. Materials are largely undated and unlabeled, but presumably date from the mid 19th century to early 20th century.
