Ogsbury couple from Duanesburg NY

Identification on photo: Mr & Mrs OGSBURY (Duanesburg, Schenectady, NY)
Photographer: unknown, tintype
Purchased: 2018 Aug Glenwood Manor Antiques, Queensbury NY


This tintype photo appears to have been taken circa 1865. The couple appear to be in their mid-20s to early 30s, so they were likely born around 1830-1840.

Olcott, Aunt Lucy

Identification of photo: AUNT LUCY OLCOTT (or Olcutt)
Photographer: unknown photographer, unknown location, circa 1890
Purchased: no record kept, but I believe it may have been in Upstate NY 2015

The back has hand-written note in pencil identifying the subject as either "Aunt Lucy Olcott" or possibly "Olcutt".

Also, at the very botton on the back is a handwritten name in ink that appears to say "Ida M. Bell" but I do not know if this is the niece of Aunt Lucy, or someone else the photo was destined for. Or I suppose, it could even be the name of the Antiques booth owner.
