elcome to Sageville's Historic Treasure Hunters' Web page. We are building a historical image database for local history studies. We will be venturing into various neighborhoods and historic districts to capture not just the historic icons that we are familiar with, but some hidden history as well. For example, you will see below an image of the fence post outside the home of the famous meat packing baron of the 19th Century Mr. Ryan. He was a lifelong friend of Ulysses S. Grant, Civil War General and post-Civil-War President of the United States. So Mr. Ryan had Grant's likeness molded into his wrought iron fence posts! There are also some homes that we photographed that not many people (even Dubuquers) know about. They are very old, and we are doing the historic research on them to find out who built them, and who lived in them. You can click on any photo below to download the more printable image.

Rights and Permissions: you can use any of these images below you choose. We ask you to give Sageville Elementary School's Historic Treasure Hunters credit if you choose to use these images in a presentation or publication.
