My information on the family disagreement with respect to the colored image came from you. I was told by another source that Anne Cartwright ID'd the man with the beard as Alfred (if that is wrong I stand corrected). I was also informed that author Jay Martin ID'd subject E as Alfred based on modern family information. And, I intend no disrespect towards Anne Cartwright or any Cartwright family member whom I can only presume said what they thought to be true.
>>>the Cartwright family knew precisely what it was doing in the 1930's.... As far as what happened in the 1930's, I can only find a record of Bruce Jr. claiming subject C was Cartwright. There is no record of this being a "family decision." (If there is please inform me). I don't know of any other family member who was theoretically in a better position to know and I can't imagine any family member publicly disputing it regardless of what they may have thought.

I am sure all of these have been seen... But I thought I would post them for whatever it is worth... Wilcox was a Vice President of the company.

FYI - there is a mis-ID in the photo of the 3 older gentlemen just above. They are L to R, Edward Anthony, V. M. Wilcox, Henry T. Anthony. Hence, the man in the Civil War uniform is Wilcox, not Anthony.
I've received some interesting commentary about all of this. This link was emailed to me today: http://whitebetsy.wordpress.com/ |

Hi Mark,
You are correct, I was wondering if anyone was going to bring up the misidentifications of Anthony & Wilcox.... It seems it was even noticed back in 1881. Please see the attached article from the Philadelphia Photographer January 1881! |
