Here's the second...and the good news.
There are a bunch of them on e-bay. I'm a micro-historian studying the old town of Sisson California (1887-1924)
These photos were taken in the 1880's by members of the Sisson family. Unfortunately not the branch I know.
The auction number is: 370012082001

Second one looks like Mision San Vicente, at first glance.

So I was surprised to see the images from our listing on your blog. We thought this album was so interesting and had to have it, but yes are willing
to sell it. You can buy it at our website and own it for a while and them resell it. We have made some digital images of it as you have appreciated
and posted on your blog. Glad you enjoyed them! They must have been a interesting group those Sissons!
And can you please get rid of all these happy face things!?

I also think it is Mission San Vicente Ferrer. There is a picture on Page 242 in the book Las Misiones Antiguas by Edward W. Vernon taken in 1934
that bears a great resemblance.
