EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the year 1902, showcases the Mayor and councilmen of Hobson City, Alabama. The esteemed gentlemen in this image include Mayor C.C. Snow, Young Pyles, Jesse Cunningham, Edward Pearce, Peter Doyle, and S.L. Davis. The group is dressed in formal attire, donning suits and dresses that were popular during the early 1900s. Hobson City, located in Calhoun County, Alabama, United States, was a significant African American community during this era. The men in this photograph represent the leadership and authority of the town. Mayor C.C. Snow, a towering figure in the center, exudes confidence and poise. To his left, Young Pyles and Jesse Cunningham are seated, both wearing well-tailored suits and serious expressions. Edward Pearce, the youngest councilman, stands to the right, dressed in a crisp shirt and vest, with a bow tie and a hat in hand. Peter Doyle and S.L. Davis complete the group, both wearing formal suits and looking directly at the camera. This photograph is a valuable piece of history, offering a glimpse into the lives of African American leaders during the early 1900s. It is a testament to their strength, resilience, and determination in the face of adversity. The image is held in the Jean Blackwell Hutson Division of the New York Public Library's Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, a vital repository of African American history and culture. The photograph is a reminder of the rich heritage and contributions of African Americans to the United States and serves as an important visual record of a bygone era.
