This CDV photograph of a mother and her four daughters from the Civil War era, reminds me of one of my favorite books, Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. The mother and three of the girls have unusual hair decorations. This photograph, although it is a little scratched up, is a real treasure and sadly has no identifying marks such as names or location.
I was thinking the same thing, Little Women. Sad that we find pictures without names or stories. It a beautiful picture. I am enjoying your blog.
