Mary was a well known photographer of women and children in Bradford. After Jacob moved out her studio was referred to as Mrs. West's Studio. Grandpa (Chester West) would make comment about going to Grandma's studio to have their picture taken.

November 17, 2000 'Round The Square column of The Bradford Era, Bradford, Pennsylvania:

The subject was EARLY PORTRAITS:

"Women, too, were photographers. Jacob West, and his wife, Mary, operated a photography studio at 66 Main St., (probably on one of the upper floors of the Wagner Opera House - now known as the former Poppy's building)." Cathy - the former McCrory's 5 and 10, and currently Performance Tool.

"Following a family dispute, Mary West eventually set up her own studio under the name of 'Mrs. West', and continued the photographic business. Her best work is in portraits of women and children. Bessie Harger ran a studio in 1913 at 14 Congress St."

Note: A doubt exists whether this Jacob, who became "old Den.Jacob", of lamesborough, was the son of Jacob, or of Samuel. Jacob, sen., in his Will, makes no recognition of any child, but gave his property wholly to William. "a kinsman," who took the care of him and his wife in their old age. In answer, it may be said that no coach, car or mail, was then established between Lanesborough and Barnstable County; and, further, it may be presumed that his property was fully exhausted in his board and apparel to the advanced age of 92 years.

On the other hand, our Jacob is thrice called junior, in the record of his admission to the second Church in Yarmouth, in his marraige with Ruth Wood, and in his letter of transfer to the church in Middleborough. As we believe that "junior" was applied only to a son in the old Records second or third was used to designate one of the same name, this evidence is nearly conclusive.

was transferred from the East Church to the Church in Middleborough in 1741 and from thence to Lanesborough
