We're working on our Buckley family history. This photo was taken at my great-great-grandmother Ellen Sweeney Buckley's farm at 1063 Corbett Street (not far from the cross of 24th and Corbett, above the Portola Observation Point seen in the rest of the photos on this screen). From the details from my great-aunt, my great-great-grandmother and great-great-grandfather operated the tollhouse.
