This photo which was provided to me by Mrs. Norma Raynor of Nanaimo, was taken in 1869 is of a young lady by the name of Dussy Seamen. On the right is the back of the photo showing the name of photographer and date of 1869. She may have been brought up near Cornwall, Ontario in the Osnabruck area. She certainly lived in Brockville, Ontario in her life time. She also may have had a link with the Wesley Winters Family in Brockville.
Any help in better identifying Dussy Seaman and her relation to the Winters family would be welcomed by Norma Raynor
