December 24, 1861: Photograph of Unidentified Man

20060631001

Whoever the man is in this undated photograph, he is not “Thomas Lincoln, the President’s Father”, as written on the top of the album page. Perhaps it is another “Thomas Lincoln” and the annotater got confused, or perhaps the inscription is completely mistaken.
