From Norma Beddingfield: This picture was loose in the old tin type photo book and is a tin type also. We don't know who it is for sure but think it might be James H Culpepper. I was told that James H. had a small hand and possibly a small foot caused from a fall or possibly disease. We think this man's beard and mustache grows much like the photo you already have on line that you list as James H or one of his sons.7
