 These people come from all over Central NYS and I have no idea who they are, but they seem related. The only one with any identification is the one in the bottom row, center, and after all this time of thinking it was "A.M.Griggs, 1874" I revised my thinking after closer examination to believe it says "A.M.Driggs, 1874" ! I saw many stones with the surname Briggs on them in Bainbridge and Afton, and it always gave me a start, but I'm almost certain it is NOT a B, but in fact a D. And as I said, they were obviously in the "migration" group that left Connecticut and ended up in the central NY area. The album is a bit worse for wear, always has been, but the photos are in very fine condition, although unidentified.
