Cabinet photo of family from the mid to late 1870s with gate prop and painted backdrop. Woman with tightly buttoned bodice and high neck and skirt with pleats. Her hair is tightly pulled back with frizzy bangs. Girl's dress appears to have velvet trim and many ruffles. Boy with striped large bow tie. Man has frock coat buttoned at top with vest and small bow tie.
