The bottom of the Photo says "Crowell Portraits, Mt. Vernon O. On the back it says Fred S. Crowell/photographer and dealer in picture frames, Mount Vernon, OHio. Negitives Preserved. I have found that the business came into play in 1869. Does anyone know how long it was in business? Or a link that will help determine the date of the photograph? Thanks in advance! Jean
