William Hampden Tener (sometimes named “William Hampden Tenner”) was a farmer and amateur photographer who lived near the Ontario towns of Emo and Devlin. He was born in 1860 (or possibly in 1858) in Tully House, Augher, Ireland. In 1882, Tener moved to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in the United States, where he worked for the Oliver Iron and Steel Company. Later he moved to Devlin, Ontario in 1898. In 1924, he married Rhoda Lodder. He died on June 10th 1948 in Devlin.

Tener’s photographs document life in the Rainy River District. Some of the images depict the towns, fields, rivers, and other parts of the built or natural environment. Other images show forestry, shipbuilding, construction, agricultural work, and other industries. Many images depict trains and telegraph stations. Other images document social life, including weddings, sports teams, foot races, fishing, a piano concert in the park, and picnics.

The Archives of Ontario has chosen to share these images because they document the social history of the Rainy River District during the early 1900s with a diverse range of themes such as lumbering, agriculture, construction, and community activities.
