Excellent find, Roger and Blaine!

Can't tell if the one purported to another of "younger Lucy" is actually her - it's very grainy and doesn't show her features terribly well. I tried to make things a little more visible in Photoshop but couldn't really get past the grainy texture (if I "despeckled" the picture, some of the facial details were really lost).

Maybe Dave can do better with it! Wink

(Whoever it is, I LOVE her hair.)

I have several other "older Lucy" pictures but haven't found one of the side profile you posted that is so detailed! *saves*

Re.: "Whoever it is, I LOVE her hair" - same here! But I love Harriet Lane's hair and hairdo, too!
Thanks for sharing and posting, Dr. Houmes and Roger!

Jenny is right to be skeptical about this image. This is not Lucy Hale, but seems to be Agnes Booth, Junius Brutus Booth, Jr.'s third wife.

Agnes Booth:

Identity solved!

RE: Lucy Hale - RJNorton - 10-18-2015 01:31 PM

I just received another note from Blaine, and he asked me to post that the older image should be attributed to the Mike Kauffman collection.

RE: Lucy Hale - RJNorton - 10-18-2015 05:08 PM

Again, thank you to Blaine for sending this photo of Agnes Booth!

Obviously Booth liked full breasted women with small waists.

I would guess that any man spending a night in a tobacco barn would already stink, and his clothes would start to 'cure' after just a few minutes of smoke, though he probably wasn't charred or burned. How fun it is, this time of year in autumn, to have a night fire burning leaves roasting food, but then as you start to go inside your clothes have a lingering odor for sure. This ambassador to Spain. Didn't Polk try to have John Breckinridge, earlier, take that appointment. Seems like several other notable figures were ambassador to Spain.

Yes, like Hale's predecessors, Gustav Körner and Carl Schurz Angel The latter was perceived by Spain as an insult...
As for the tobacco barn - it was at that time used to store good furniture, also from the Garretts' neighbors, AFAIK to be prevented from falling into Union hands.
