Buell, 1844-1910, was born in Henry County, Illinois, the son of a photographer. From 1873 until at least 1905 he made his living primarily through travelling lantern slide and lecture shows, which he called "entertainments". Two of his shows were entitled "A Tour Around the World" and "Views of Two Continents". During his career he travelled through twelve American states, nine Canadian provinces and Newfoundland. Although he was largely based in eastern Canada and USA, in 1884 he and his Canadian wife, Alice, travelled to western Canada to photograph views along the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR). In 1885 he photographed the Riel Rebellion and Riel's trial. In May 1886 he was provided with a special photographer's car by C.P.R., and during the summer he travelled to the British Columbia coast. C.P.R. used some of his photos for advertising purposes. In late 1886 he returned to Montreal. He made two later trips to western Canada, in 1904 and 1905. He died in Montreal. Oliver and Alice Buell had one daughter Frances Louise (Steward), 1887-1963. Frances and her husband Samuel George Steward had three children, William Buell Steward, 1914-1991, Virginia Alice (Shannon), 1917-1963, and Joseph Steward.
