The town had been named after the copper mine shaft that was sunk there in 1857, which had been named after the Seneca Chief Red Jacket. Well, that suggests that the photo was taken during the between 1875 and 1892, when the town was still called Red Jacket, thereby narrowing down my target years in which to search for this family. ==== MIHOUGHT Mailing List ==== The Ross Collection Copper Country Obituaries and Newspaper Transcripts http://www.mfhn.com/rosscoll/rosscoll.html ============================== To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237
