He seems a lot younger than 16 in this 1891 photo, I would say not older than c. 10 yo.

thank you Carlo - in the context of the era/time period it is not impossible - and comparing to my own family images from the 1890's where the precise ages are well documented He seems a lot younger than 16 in this 1891 photo, I would say not older than c. 10 yo. |

click onto image to enlarge This certainly looks like the family group image that was published in 1906 in an American newspaper. It does not have the "feel" of a Brown Brothers image - seems to be from a commercial studio photographer. It would be nice to find out where the original print is.
