Alfred & Olga Benitz
— Photos & Albums —

Alfred had his own camera, but he was not an avid photographer.  He almost certainly took the photos of his hunting trips (Yukon and Africa), and many of the family photos were taken by his younger brother John, but for a great many we do not know the photographer.

Photos:

 Miscellaneous Photos Please see below
 Album #1 Alfred & Olga’s collection (approx. 1902-1925, plus 1 photo 1953)
 Album #2 Alfred’s collection (approx. 1895-1915)
 Album #3 Alfred’s Hunts: Yukon (1908) & Kenya (1910) -- COMMING!
 Album #4 Olga’s visit to Estancia Pulmarí (1913)
 

These portraits were most likely taken soon after they married,
in Buenos Aires, 29 September, 1915.
