Description
Civil War era photo album of 60 images + from the family of Reverend James King Gibson and his wife Sarah of Manchester and Jackson in Adams County, Ohio. Included in this photo album is an one-sixth ambrotype of a family member also pictured in the album as a cdv portrait. Appears cdv was taken from ambrotype.
This photo album is part of an important and extensive archive associated with the Collings/Kirker family of Adams Co., Ohio that I have listed in my shop. The Archive over-all consists of materials from the Kirker-Collings-Gibson family of Adams Co., Ohio, from just before statehood to the end of the 20th century. Two of the progenitors of this clan are James R. Gibson and his wife, Martha King Gibson. This archive and these photos appear to have been accumulated and come through Mary King Collings, who, it appears never married.
Please take a moment to examine my many other items from the Collings and Kirker families of Adams County,Ohio.
