Robert was one of the founders of Parmleysville, Ky. (That "bird" sitting on his head is actually an imperfection in the tintype.)

A second copy of this picture turned up in an old photo album along with others, that may contain members of Robert's family..

The two men seated in this picture are believed to be of two of Robert's sons -- Aladdin (1843-1926), left, and William Irvin (1837-1903). William resembles the man in photo No. 1 on this page.

The young man standing at left may be James Clay (1866- ? ), one of William's sons, and looks like the man in photo No. 6 on this page; the one on the right could be another of William's sons, Robert A. (1872- ? ) or Willliam A. (1877- ? ).

If anyone can confirm these identities, please email me.
