Mystery Photo #1


This one of two tintype photos that we have in our collection. We believe the woman on the right is Sarah Helen Carpender Corson. The man seems older than the two ladies; perhaps he is their father?
The location of the photo is unknown; it measures almost 4" by 2 1/2". There is no revenue stamp on the back and it did not have a paper sleeve. Judging from the clothing, the photo was taken prior to 1900.
