Joyce,
Just noticed the new section on early photographers.Have attached a sample of A. J. Fishers work.
The photo is of Celesta Morley (later Stiles)  taken on 29 March, 1893 on the occasion of Her 7th birthday.
She was born in Athens 29 November, 1886.
She was the daughter of Abraham Morley, Married William Reginald Sewell, died 16 January, 1978 in Honeybrook, Chester, PA.

You may be able to use this as an example of His good work.

Respectfully,   John P Stanton

Hi Joyce,

I've located another example of A. J. Fisher, Towanda, PA. 

This is Barak B. Hartshorn, b. 11 Feb 1836 and d. 15 May 1903.  Barak is buried in the Ulster Cemetery, Ulster, PA.  He served as a Private, Co. H, 104th Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry during the Civil War and his medal can be seen in this photo.

This photo could also be placed on your Civil War Veterans page, if you are so inclined.
