All photos here sent to me by James Bishop,
jbishop44@verizon.net
These photos were all together in a photo album he purchased
They are all tin types and were already identified by some person unknown
Some have the city for the individual, some just have "U.S." for United States I
presume
James wrote me this note: "I'm attaching files of the tin type and other
type photos contained in the album. I tried at first to see if I would be able
to slide each tin type out of the page in which it appears in the album. But,
even using tweezers with cloth protection, it was much too difficult and after
one or two efforts, I stopped. I did not want to destroy what quality of the tin
types and album remains in attempting that process. So, I tried to get each page
with all those on the page. Thus, 01 OH tin type is the first page... 02-03 OH
Tin Type is pages 2 and three, and so forth. You'll see a couple of images which
I was able to remove. Those are numbered first by the page on which they appear,
and secondly as to the number of the photo, counting each photo pocket. It
should coincide also with the file which I'm attaching of the entire album.
I spent some time tracking down some of these families and found that most of
them may be located either in the 1870 or 1880 U. S. Census records available on
Ancestry.com and/or familysearch.org or com.
I hope you like the outcome. Someone who had the album earlier tried sewing a
blue thread to tighten some of the photo pockets and also tried removing them
with bare tweezers or other implement which unfortunately did some minor damage
by way of scratches on some of the tin types."
James is no relation to these people but has looked them up in census for more
