  1. Excellent document! I have an old painted family portrait, with a paper note on the back. It says "JACKSON BROTHERS
    (CHAS. A. JACKSON)
    (Established 1850)
    CARVERS, GILDERS, AND PHOTOGRAPHERS". Are you able to date the note? It does not mention any adress, neither in Oldham nor Manchester. I can send a photograph of it by mail. Kristinn
