Tuesday Tagging - Family Picnic

Picture found in Callaway Family of Photographs, Unidentified Family

Do you know who any of these might be?

P00010 - "Family Picnic" 

Albumin Print, circa 1860 - 1890

Costume, circa 1890s

There are many costumes to chose from in large collections of pictures like these. I try to focus on one clear image, preferably a child since their clothing styles are easier to identify and mark the period. Think about it, children often grow out of their cloths about the time the fashion is changing. Meanwhile adults will wear out of fashion cloths for years before replacing it.

Here is a cropped image of the child I chose to focus. The child is wearing a sailor outfit which was popular in the 1890s.
