This is a CdV or Cartes d’ Visite (about the same size as a wallet photo) that was found tucked into the back of the Nettie Parks Album.
This is an unknown baby, the photo is not marked with any names. The Photographer was Haynes of Fargo D.T.
D.T. stands for Dakota Territory, which means that this photo was taken before North Dakota became a State. North Dakota joined the Union on November 03, 1889. Fredrick E Haynes was in Fargo from 1881 to 1883 and F. Jay Haynes was there from 1879 to 1889. I am no good at deciphering the Curly Q’s in the center between the name and the place. That may be a clue.
Thanks for stopping by, do come again:)
