I have posted a photo at the following URL http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~rayen/images/SarahNixon.jpg Written on the back is Sarah Nixon. Looking for anyone who has a photo of Sarah Nixon, wife of Isaac Nixon, that could compare the photos for a positive identification. The photo is undated and I did not see and studio name that would help date the photo. This photo was in the possession of Sarah "Sadie" (DENNY) BRANDON at the time of her death. Sadie was a daughter of Sarah (NIXON) DENNY Thanks for any help or comments. Tony Kirk
