Faceville, GA Gallery

After returning from Alaska, Moore headed across the northern US and down toward Florida. Along the way he made a few photographs in the Dakotas, New Albany, Mississippi, and Brundidge, Alabama, before stopping in Faceville, Georgia. The Faceville photos were taken at the end 1899 on and about the farm of Judge H.B Spooner. The judge was incorrectly identified as 'Spencer' by Moore's nephew, Vincent Irick, in photo #0149. It was here on the Judge's estate that Moore began what would become an extensive series on the African-American sharecropper families and servants who were living on some of the larger hunting estates in the Georgia/Florida area around Tallahassee.
