Elry Tart
I have a small tin type photograph of a baby who is approximately 7 months old.The child has a high forehead, deep set eyes, and a slightly down turned mouth.She/he is wearing a white cotton dress with long sleeves that gather at the wrists, and the skirt has a band above the waist.The image is mounted in a decorative white oval mat and there is a heavy paste board backing that has green strips at the top and botton.
There are two pencil markings on the back of the photo.One says "Elry Tart" and the other says S19 (with a small 2 as if to say S19 squared)over 20 as if written as a fraction.
Does anyone know who Elry Tart was?I would guess the photo to have been taken ca 1870 - 1890.Most of the family whose photos this was found among lived in Pike County, Alabama.
