I am interested in seeing photos of John Rope, who fought with my ancestor Al Sieber. I am new to this forum, and happy to see all the gathered wisdom and information.

I just aquired an original stereoview of Al Seiber and scouts taken at San Carlos by J.C. Burge around 1885. Here is the photo I believe you are referring to: commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Al_Sieber_with_Apache_scouts,_JC_Burge,_1870s.jpg That is not Al Sieber in that stereoscopic image. I know it says it is on Wikipedia and the auction page, but it isn't. There are several images that have been misidentified as Al Sieber. I am not a scholarly authority. But I am a family member (although born long after he died of course!), and I believe I can recognize Al Sieber when I see him. I can also prove it by comparing to other photos. Save
