Description
Thomas Mooney Sr. [1782-1855] - husband of Cassandra Inghram.
This particular photograph is most likely an 1870s-era reproduction of an earlier 1850s-era ambrotype or daguerreotype photograph. Ambrotypes and daguerreotypes were one-of-a-kind portraits that families often took to photographers years later in order to have multiple reproductions created that could be shared with family members.
Original, no photographer listed.
