RE: Sarah Bush Johnston photograph
It is a little longer than inscriptions usually are, but that could be explained away as being written years by family members years after Sarah's death with the special historical circumstances/significance of the Lincoln Presidency in mind. But if that were so, it's odd that it wouldn't mention the Daniel Johnston marriage. While I guess it wouldn't be as important to historians and Lincoln enthusiasts, it would be important to the Johnston family members who presumably would have inherited the photo and used the inscription to record family history.
