there was a Fr. Hugh Lane, ordained at St. Johns June 2, 1844; served at St. Teresa's Newark, NJ, then St. Teresa's at NE corner of Broad & Catherine, Philadelphia.

#1 Is this photo of someone (Massey or Pickard?) who went to Colorado to make their fortune in the silver/ gold rush.

#3 Unidentified priest, standing

found the photographer in Burlington NJ census. 1870 Reel 853 p. 198 2nd ward Aug. 29th line 35 (#354 343)

so the photo was made sometime after 1858? when little Sarah was born. Oh I guess I could check Pa & NJ 1860....

#4 Photo: Seated youth
no photographer, no identification
(and I was unable to determine if any of the Thomas Baker's found in the 1860 census were the same as the photographer of #3)

The Raftsmans Journal, Clearfield, PA has many mentions of Jacob's establishment and his rheumatism problems, 1883-1885. According to the Directory of PA Photographers, 1839-1900, he was born c.1835. I do not know the dates he was a photographer in Clearfield, but he did leave his shop for New England in the fall of 1885.
