Taken in New Orleans; by S.Moses & Son No.46 Camp Street, Corner of Geavier. This is probably Dr. George W. Ridgell. George had become a physician by 1860 Ouchita Co. Ark. census. The nearest medical school at this time would be New Orleans. George would have been in his mid twenties. This man in picture had a beard, but looked very young in the eyes. His suit looks mid 1850's. Samuel Wolfgang Moses, and son Edward R.,had a photo studio in New Orleans on Camp street from 1851 to 1861. when young George Ridgell was learning medicine. This photo was owned by Raymond Clarence Ridgell, grandson of George.
