The date provided is April 1916, which would have been 13 years after Gage left office. I therefore question both the date and maybe even the given location. (I am sure of very little.) Noirishers, draw your own conclusions.


1916 (?)

1916
Caption reads: "Cook working in kitchen of Governor Gage's Home - [New Electric Range on left and old wood fueled range in alcove at end of kitchen]"





1916 - Merely for context. This is said to be Gov. Gage's residence in Sacramento. No less provincial than many of the other mainhouses seen in recent photos?

I have not been inside the Bell Gardens Gage mansion but these photos seem to be mislabeled. The bottom photo is definitely Bell Gardens. You can still see that porte-cochère today attached to the Bell Gardens home!

The tall chimney was probably taken down in an earthquake and replaced with a shortie.
