     This is a beautiful early historical piece found in Massachusetts, New England. The actual photo is somewhat light in tone, is enhanced here. It is still a vibrant image and she can be seen very well in close up scans. A rare historical Newfane & Brattleboro area Stone family photo. Her father Doctor Nathan Stone was a medical doctor and surgeon during the American Revolutionary War, thus there are also DAR and SAR family ties.

      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)
