Peter Dingess, who owned the original photo, allowed the Logan Banner to publish it in 1937. Peter, who appears in the photo, was two years old. Guy M. Dingess and wife are standing in the downstairs doorway. J.V. Buskirk is standing to the right in front of the window. John Lee Buskirk is sitting in the upstairs doorway, while Bird Buskirk (later a physician) is standing in the upstairs doorway. This store was located where Guyan Drug Store stood in 1937.
Is it possible to get a copy of this photo? John Lee Buskirk was my great grandfather.
Hi, Sharon. You are more than welcome to copy this photo. Just be sure to credit the Logan Banner so folks know the original source. My copy is not very clear due to the fact I located it from old microfilm. Always good to hear from a Buskirk: one of my favorite Logan families.
