This estate was an interesting "blended" family whose roots dated back to the early 1800's.
A phenomenal photograph but a total frustration in researching. The photograph is approximately 4" x 5¾". It is mounted on an approximate 6" x 9" cabinet card. The photographer's name located in the lower right corner is essentially "bleached" out. My best interpretation is Van Wagner, Hackensack, New Jersey. However there is a larger name on an angle above this. There is identification written in ink on the back but the hand writing is hard to make out. There are two names both of which appear to be masculine names. Perhaps it is a young boy in the dress. The surname appears to be Heath. I believe that they are indeed actors in character. Their dress is too early for the photography. Further, I am at a total loss as to how they fit into the family tree! There are relatives from New Jersey, but this is the first indication of the Heath surname! So far the earliest immigrant has been Samuel Loy from England who served in the United States Civil War before becoming a citizen! I still have boxes of ephemera to work through so I am sure I will learn more. Perhaps this might be a good time to note that there were a multitude of file boxes filled with genealogy research. I did scan through them quickly pulling out what I thought were highlights. However, in total there was far too much tending to be unfocused and somewhat misleading.
The cabinet card does have staining along the bottom and the back is "dirty" with a marker scribble on the back.
