I purchased in Alameda, CA the subject studio (no name or location shown) portrait of a young couple, identified on the back of the mount in pencil:

John T.Danner, born March 1834 in MD, died 21 Feb 1922 in Vinton, Benton Co., IA, was the son of Abraham Danner (1808-1875) and Dorothy Townsend (1806-1899).On 14 Dec 1865, John married Rachael Ann Hite (1841-), the daughter of David Hite (1799-1868) and Margaret Stephens (1807-1891).The couple had six children.
Along with this photo I also purchased a similar studio portrait of an unidentified young boy, bearing on the back of the mount in pencil:
" ' CARTE DE VISTE PHOTO
c. 1870"
This is probably a portrait of one of John and Rachael's older sons, likely David O. Danner (1869-1943).
