My great grandfather Walter David Hunt operated a photography studio in Gas City Indiana at the turn of the century. I'm looking for any information about the dates and addresses. The 1895 Grant County directory lists W.D. Hunt's home, gallery and shop at 241 1/2 E Main in Gas City but this is about all I know. -Jim Hunt
