Ansley's father lived in the 300 block of South Carey Street. Maybe his home still exists.

Does anyone have a photo of Ansley with his Parker, or a photo likeness of Ansley during the 1899-1900's time period?...

In the big event be was shot out on the 32d bird." http://www.la84foundation.org/Sports.../SL3504011.pdf http://www.la84foundation.org/Sports.../SL3504012.pdf http://www.la84foundation.org/Sports.../SL3504016.pdf Guns—Parker- 73, Smith- 34, Greener- 19, Francotte- 19, Daly- 12, Remington- 10, Lefever- 7, Scott- 7, Winchester- 5, Cashrnore- 5, Purdey- 3, Baker- 2, Colt- 2, Richards- 2, Marlin, Prechtel, Grant, Webley, Stannard, Forehand, Syracuse, Churchill, Claybrough- 1 each.

I can't see it. Looks too short for Ansley to me.

The top hat picture of Ansley is from, I believe 1898. I found a "trade note" about Ansley and Mrs. Fox starting out from Philadelphia by automobile to drive to the Pennsylvania State Shoot at somewhere like Chambersburg and they had to eventually put the car on a train to get there. This was in the 1904 to 1906 time frame. I'm at our place in Kodiak, AK, right now. Will find the article and specifics when I'm back in Washington State. Ansley was at the last Grand American Handicap at live birds at Kansas City in 1902, but didn't shoot as well as he had at Interstate Park in 1900 and 1901.

The stache is different but the lower jaw line looks the same. Perhaps an older AH in the second picture?
