Photo Corner: Edward Lambe portrait, ca. 1838-39

Edward Lambe (portrait), ca. 1838-39Here’s today’s portrait:

Attached is a submission for your Photo Corner. The subject is Edward Lambe (b 1831 in England). Edward was my great-great-grandfather. The portrait was painted by his father, William Lambe, around 1838/9. William was a Freemason and Edward was allowed to attend school. He is dressed in his school uniform. The family came to America in 1850 and settled in DuPage County, Illinois.

Thank you,
