Joseph Swartz was a shingle mill owner in Granite Falls, Washington, in the 1890s and early 1900s. By 1908, he had relocated his business to Everett. Swartz was also an amateur photographer. His images of family, friends and local scenery, all on glass plate negatives, document life in Snohomish County at the turn of the 19th century.
<p>This Swartz image of a farmhouse and fields was probably taken near Granite Falls.
