Nancy Caroline Puckett as a young girl.


Nancy’s father, J. N. Puckett.


Possibly Nancy’s mother who I think may be Anna Griffin.


I’m wondering if this might be Nancy’s brother, J. N. Puckett as
I think J. N. Puckett, the father was born around 1804, and I
doubt there were tintypes available in the 1810s and 1820s?

More Photos of Aida Austin

Aida Austin was my Grandpa Mort Austin’s sister, and my great aunt. Aida is the one that wrote the 1881 Diary I’ve posted on the right hand side of this site. She apparently developed some of her own photos, although some of the photos here are actually postcards.

My mom loaned me her photo album which I have scanned and I thought some of you would be interested in viewing the photos of the area that she had. I have posted most of the ones from the area and here are a few more.

This was kind of random: A photo of Harriet Beecher Stowe and her brother, Henry Ward Beecher.
