Kathy I finally found the reference to you inquiry as to when Charles R. B. CLAFLIN had his photography studio in Worcester to help identify your photo better. The following: Claflin Artist Worcester, Mass. "Listed as a daguerrian in Worcester, Mass., 1851-1860. From 1851 to 1853 he was listed at 142 Main Street, with various residence addresses. From 1854-1860 he was listed at 188 Main Street and lived at 25 Thomas Street. In 1858, he advertised spherographs and photographs. He reportedly retired from photography in 1892." Hope this helps. Anyone who may have connections with Charles Claflin, I would like to hear from you. Janice
