This beautiful photo was found in Minneapolis, Minnesota, MN in the areas of Carver, Anoka and Hennepin County. This is about 40 miles from Cannon Falls MN mentioned above. She may also be seen as Lucinda Oakes, Lucille Oakes in census records. Lucy has beautiful thick hair in Victorian ringlets and it is an intimate and beautiful close up Civil War era portrait. We cannot say for certainty this is her above as Lucy A, Scolfield, unless a family member has other photos of her. The surname is also seen as Scholfield. A beautiful Oakes family piece.

      Note: Hello from ~debra. I have spent years collecting over 10,000 ID’d lost family photos & paper from US flea markets & antique shops. I do the best gen research I can, but am always open to corrections. This is an original antique item, not a reprint. A new high quality rigid sleeve is included for extra protection, especially during shipping. You may buy a piece alone, or large intimate 300 dpi scans of the front and back sent immediately via email, or both. Please search carefully, as they are often found together and many may be related. I also invite you to join me at Ancestorville Genealogy on facebook. Thank you, enjoy! ~Debra Clifford (contact info on top bar)
