| Contextual Notes | George G. Cantwell, a native of Puyallup, Washington, came to Dawson from Juneau in 1898 where he was employed by E.A. Hegg. In 1899, he entered into a business partnership with Frederic N. Atwood. Their specialty was Alaskan views, outdoor portraiture, finishing, and supplies for amateurs. The partnership seems to have dissolved after June 1901, and Cantwell returned to Puyallup by September of that year. |
