These photographs appear to be from the same family, the Hagoods. All of them were photographed by Reed, located in Quincy, Illinois. More information on the photographer can be found in the post Orphan Photos #32 & #33.
On the back of the first photo, it reads:
Leon Hagood—son of Mr. and Mrs. H. Hagood.
Died 1892
On the back of the second photo, it reads:
William Sears Hagood
Charles Hagood
Leon Hagood
On the back of the third photo, it reads:
Horace Hagood
Because the photographer imprint is different for each photo, it is assumed each was taken at a different time. Since the back of the first photo indicates that Leon died in 1892, it is assumed that those two photos were taken before 1892.
Based on the research I did for the post mentioned above, I believe I have found the family in the 1900 census as living in LaGrange, Lewis, Missouri. [1] The household lists the following people:
| Name | Relationship | Month/Year of Birth | Place of Birth |
| Horrace Hagood | Head | October 1856 | Missouri |
| Zillah Hagood | Wife | November 1856 | Missouri |
| Willie Hagood | Son | September 1884 | Missouri |
| Charls [sic.] Hagood | Son | September 1887 | Missouri |
| Kate Christing | Servant | January [?] 1876 | Missouri |
| Arthur King | Servant | August 1876 | Missouri |
| Robert Smith | Servant | March 1871 | Missouri |
Horace, Zillah, and William are found living together in the 1910 [2] and 1920 [3] census (living in Union, Lewis, Missouri) and 1930 [4] (living in LaGrange, Lewis, Missouri). From the 1910, [5] 1920, [6] and 1930 [7] censuses, it would appear that Charles married a Mary, and had a daughter Hazel (b. about 1914-15).
Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find out more about the family, other than there was an SSDI listing for William Hagood, who dies in November 1965. [8] I have not been able to determine if there are any living relatives who would like these photographs. If you believe they are related to you, please contact me.
