    4 Editor's Note: The notation "Carveth House - Niagara County" was handwritten on the reverse of the photograph and is assumed to be correct. Date of the photograph and source are unknown. This house and the Wil-3 McManus House are both associated with the Carveth name and are nearby to each other; however, the clues in the photograph are circumstantial and most likely match this less refined structure.
