(Daguerreotype of Charles Knowlton I discovered in a file folder in Deerfield)
I'm not sure. I assumed it was, since it had to have been taken in the 1840s. Knowlton died in February 1850.
Are you sure that’s a Daguerreotype? It looks like a print from a negative to me—although it’s often hard to tell from a computer screen!
