  • Description
  • Harriet Cooper, on right, is pictured here with an unidentified woman. Perhaps they are reading a letter, or even looking closely at one of Dr. Cooper's photographs! Dr. William Henry Cooper and his wife, Harriet Lillian Bettes Cooper, lived in four different houses in Oakmont from at least 1897 to Dr. Cooper's death in 1925. It is unknown at what house this photograph was taken. They had met when Dr. Cooper was a doctor and professor at the Homeopathic Hospital of Pittsburgh, now Shadyside Hospital. Harriet had been a student nurse there, and was valedictorian of her class. They had four children: Catharine (born 1897), Charles (1899), Franklin (1905), and Caroline (1912). Charles Cooper's daughter, Caroline Carroll, presented the Oakmont Carnegie Library with 80 glass plate negatives taken by Dr. Cooper from approximately 1890-1910 in the winter of 2009.
