I get somewhat frustrated when I post photos of performers whose names, shows and dates are unknown to me. I hope that someone will recognize them and make a comment, as to who they are.

The Ortons
Posted By thecircusblog on May 24, 2015
I believe that the Orton’s came from an old circus family. I know of their name, but never met nor work with any of the family other than Tex Orton who may be related to them. All of the Orton photos came from Doug Price. This gentlemen gave me permission to put them on the circus blog. Many thanks Doug.
