I tried to view the photos and other items on the site. I asked for password and id. How do I get one to research costumes and hair of the 1800s Prairie of Texas and Oklahoma. My daughter is a child actor in the play "Texas" in Palo Duro Canyon. I am making her costumes. I want to find examples to go by and use patterns I already have. I have no idea about her hair. It is cut too short to do much with.
