At the time of this photograph, the family was living in St John's Ward in downtown Toronto, home to many people who had arrived on the Underground Railroad before the American Civil War. When Albert died, they were living near College and Bathurst Streets, a neighbourhood that was becoming a centre of Black life in the city.
