Mystery Photo MP001

 

This is most likely the oldest photograph in my collection. It is a tintype and to me it appears to be around the 1880s. I have no idea who it is, if he is a family member or if he is part of my maternal grandmother or grandfather's line. He features also don't resemble anyone I know of.

The only other tintype in my collection is of my maternal great grandmother Roxie Hughes 1876-1961.  It could be from the same time period but so far there is no way to know if they are related.

May have just discovered where these photographs were taken.  Searching Saline County, Arkansas I came across some pictures from an amusement park called Happy Hollow.  There are several similar pictures, though mine look like they were taken at a later date.
