Portrait of Peter Jordan wearing football uniform standing on an athletic field.

Part of a scrapbook compiled by William Winneshiek (Winnebago), who wrote the caption: Samson Baird -- (L.G.) (Pawnee) 1910, '11, '12. (Cherokee)

The Cumberland County Historical Society's cataloging states: There were no students named Samson Baird in the records of the school. And this player does not look like Sampson Burd, who played football.  He is Peter Jordon.  See photo 39-13-02

Studio portrait of Albert Nash, Robert Nash, and George Nash. The three were brothers. Two are wearing uniforms. (This is a modern photograph of an original photograph. Location of original unknown.) 

Note: Albert Nash left the school in 1898 and his brothers arrived in 1911. Therefore this photo was probably taken when Albert was visiting them at the school during their stay there, or it may have been taken in Philadelphia where Albert was living during a visit from his brothers.
