| Description | A collection of photographs, diplomas, a family Bible, an album and charcoal portraits associated with the Henry Spanner family who lived in Asheville at the turn-of-the-century. The photographs record the comfortable life of the German-Catholic family and the relatives of the Asheville Spanners. Henry Spanner was a lumberman, and like many of the prominent lumbermen who moved to Asheville at the turn of the century, such as G.W. Pack, he had business relationships in Ohio, and other northern states and was well established before making the move to Buncombe County. |
