This photo is between a Tin Type and painting/drawing. It is over 150 years old. John P Howard's occupation is listed in the US 1850 Ala, Butler County, Census as School Teacher. His occupation in 1860 is listed as jailer in Butler Co, Ala. John is the mystery man within our family in that he left homne at age 15, went to sea and then settled in Alabama raising a family. We haven't been able to establish documented ties to his father William Howard of NY, a wealthy merchant and banker.
