This is my great-great-grandfather, Champion Forrest (or Forrester), of the Saluda, NC-Greenville, SC area. 1834-?. Can you please date this photo?
Are you sure this man was born in 1834? He looks quite young, and the clothing looks as if from much later in the century. What type of photo is this? Is it a tintype, or on glass, or is it a paper photo? And the size of the photo can give clues also. He had great hair!
