In the winter of 2006 a committee was formed to publish a picture book in commemoration of the centennial of Mohnton's incorporation. Hundreds of pictures where digitalized. Quite a few of the images where taken by the Burley brothers. Two avid photographers who lived in Mohnsville in the late 1890's and early 1900's. Quite a few of the Burley brothers images where portraits of their friends and neighbors in Mohnsville (Mohnton). Unfortunately the committe was unable to identify the vast majority of the people in the images. In view of that, very few pictures of people are included in the centennial volume. Presented here is a sample of the many portraits the Burley brother produced. You can view enlargements of the images by clicking on the thumbnails.
