Dear Shelly,
I've kept your message all this time.....
My 2nd g.grandfather was Oliver Farnsworth......By his first wife, Nancy Rice, he had a son: Milo R. Farnsworth b 1822 Homer, NY and died 26 May 1909 in CRESCO,IOWA.
Milo and his wife had a large family....many daughters and sons born between 1850-1863: sons Byron, Clinton, Frank and Charles Farnsworth. My thinking is that it may be that your picture is of one of the children from those sons that may have lived in the same area as their parents. That narrows it down a bit.....Hope you can put that photo in the hands of that family. Did you contact anyone in Cresco? Does Upper Iowa University still exist and do they have a record that may help you? Good luck.....

I've "rescued" an old photograph of a young Mr. FARNSWORTH of Cresco, Iowa which was taken at the W.H. Monroe Studio in Fayette, Iowa. It notes on the back of the photograph that he was a student at Upper Iowa University. I believe the photograph was likely taken in the 1890's and that Mr.FARNSWORTH was in his late teens at the time.I'm hoping to find someone from this family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to its rightful place with family. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me.Thanks,Shelley
