Lydia Brown Married Henry Harrison " Tip" Dow - H. H. Dow was my ggrandfather's brother.He served in the Civil War- possibly where he got the nickname "Tip".
Lydia was born in 1845 and died in 1884. I am assuming this photo was taken when she was in her 20's so most likely it was taken during the Civil War.
I love old photos like this..
ReplyDeleteDon't you wish you could talk to her and find out what her life was like? I always wonder when I see this types of photos.
Thank you for sharing this picture, I love to look at them and learn more about these eras.
ReplyDeleteI just love the title of your blog too..makes my heart sing!
