A Late Photo Friday: A daguerrotype of My Great Grandmother and her sister

 

Dagurrotype of Lucy Amy and Jane Caroline Reed, abt 1854, Northampton, MA

One of the images passed down to me from my mother was a daguerrotype of two young children.  It was taken in Northhampton, MA by J.D. Wells.  I found an 1851 advertisement for him.

J. D.W'ELLS, DAGUERREIAN ARTIST, No. 6 Kirkland's Block, Main. Street Northampton, Mass. Likenesses taken by a sky-light connected with a beautiful side-light. Pictures put up in alls tyles of the Art. Plates, Cases, Lockets, Frames, and all kinds of Dagurreotype Stock for sale.

I estimate this was taken around 1853 to 1854 and the subjects are my Great-grand Aunt Lucy Amy Reed and my Great Grandmother Jane Caroline Reed.  I estimate they were abourt6 and 8 at the time.  

Here are some more pictures of Jane Caroline Reed to compare with.

Possibly Jane Caroline Reed or Lucy Amy Reed
