This is a copy of a tintype that was once in a velvet album belonging to my
grandfather, Nathaniel Stark Ball. The album is no longer in existence but I
have a few of the tintypes and photographs. Since scanning them into the
computer I have done some work on the images in Photoshop as they were in rather
bad condition.I believe this could be a relative of the Ball family, or possibly a Holmes or Hawkins. If anyone can help identify, please write!
