Not a relative of Mr Howe, but I have a family photo album from 1912 that has several snapshots of a trip to the East Coast that has photos of Mr Howe and his wife Emma. I would be interested in any information about him and his descendents. I would like to develop a book that includes the phots and some personal information about Mr. Howe and his life after the war.
