Some time ago I purchased an old album of photographs I bought of an Trenton, NJ family - most were taken in the 1850 - 1900 time frame. There are about eighty photographs in this album and unfortunately not one single person is identified. I hope to eventually post most of the photos from this album as many are from this era. This particular CDV photo of a very distinguished and attractive man was taken by Trenton photographers Good & Stokes between 1864 and 1866. Good is most likely Jonathan Good who very little is known about, and Stokes most likely Stockton Stokes who had studios in Trenton throughout the 1860's before moving to Philadelphia. We do know that Good & Stokes had a studio at 27 East State Street at least between 1864 and 1866 as evidenced by the revenue stamp on the back of the photograph. The stamp is also initialed by Stokes.
