I’m guessing , but this photo has to around 1905 or so, going by the young appearance of my grandfather. It seems the common trait or tradition with the De La O family is the musical ability. Many of the ancestor’s were musician’s, most prominent being Buenaventura De La O.

From Left to Right:
Manuel De La O, Unknown, My Grandfather Santiago De La O, Unknown, Andres De La O.


Again, just speculating at this point and going by his appearance and clothing this photo seems to be somewhere near 1920 give or take a year. Santiago was born in 1886, making him in his mid thirties. Just a rough guess, maybe someone has a better idea of the time frame.
