Audley M Harrison Jr

Audly M Harrison Jr was the father of Obediah, Sarah Sally, George W, Henry, Josie and Cora.

This is a tin photograph of Audley M Harrison Jr, not a tintype photo which was used later. These actual tin photos were usually taken by traveling photographers, about the size of a business card "calling cards" and very popular during and right after the Civil War. It was taken sometime after the Civil War between 1964 and 1875 and found in the home of Juanita Clower Kirby Wells.

Juanita still lives on the farm which has been in the family since the early 1900s. Audley's son, Obediah had passed away in 1900 and his wife Laura and her children went to Oklahoma where her son Alph Harrison married Nellie Laurence who's family owned this farm. Laura passed away in their home on this farm and it is believed that this photograph was in her possessions.
