  Bound photograph album with images depicting the family of Adna F. Brockway and Annie Brockway, their children, Leon Brockway and Elsie Brockway Snyder, and grandchildren, Dorothy and Marjorie. The album documents the family from the late 1880s to the early 1940s and includes scenes, residences, baby pictures, and family portraits, with detailed handwritten captions throughout.

Scenes in South Pasadena and surrounding areas include the Brockway residence at 306 N. Raymond Ave., including interior views, the Marengo Hotel in 1888 with "Vermonters celebrating Thanksgiving" gathered on the porch, a schoolhouse, the Arroyo Seco (including Scoville Dam), the San Gabriel Mountain camps, a trip to British Columbia, and scenes of life in Southern California at the beaches, the California Missions, floats from the Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena, and a dilapidated cabin identified as "A Mexican home."
