Scranton pictures

ROBERTS

Looking for pictures of Scranton Iowa main street from the years 1880 to the 1950's. We found a medicine bottle with the inscription B.F. Roberts Pharmacist on it. After doing some research I have found out his full name is Benjamin Franklin Roberts, Father was Thomas Roberts and Mother was Mary Roberts. B.F. Roberts was a partner in the drug store with R. Ellis until 1881 when Mr. Ellis sold the partnership to Mr. Roberts. An 1886 census shows Mr. Roberts living with a family named Coleman. Would like to find a picture of the drug store as we think we know where it stood at one time but aren't positive on it. Would also like to find a picture of Mr. Roberts if possible. Would welcome any leads or help that anyone can give.
