Turcotte family?

Photo by Ryder Larsen
Red River Settlement (Winnipeg)
1866-1870

We speculate that this photo might show Caroline Turcotte  (?-1898), the wife of George Thomas Inkster, along with her mother and one of her sisters.

Edited views are offered to enhance the original tintype.

​Towner, North Dakota?
​c.1890s

This photo might show the wedding of one of George T Inkster's children, but we can't conclusively identify anyone.

Photo by Gauvin Gentzel & Co

It's not clear who Mrs. William Odell was, or her connection to the Inkster family.
