Thanks for the help everyone!  I'm going to include

@Jim, by the early 1900s, does that include the 1920s?  or do you mean 1900-1910?

I'm including a picture of my grandpa that I know for a fact is him to maybe compare.  It is not a tintype and taken when he was playing football in collage.  So he is probably 19-20 years old in it.  I believe the '25 in the photo is the year it was taken.

Hi again everyone.  This is another tintype.  I've already flipped it.  My dad seems to think that the guy on the left is his dad and the other guy one his dad's cousins.  Since his dad was born 1906, that would put this sometime in the 1920s.  Is dad off his rocker or does he still have all his marbles?  Where they still doing tintypes then?

Another tintype.  The look quite elegant to me.  Can't help with estimates as I'm not quite sure who they are.

You guys can really work magic on this board!  Very beautiful work!  Thanks for the help dating as well.  Since I learned tintypes are reversed, I put that in the message now so everyone knows.

And I had assumed both men were seated with how their hands and legs are folded =)  The sad thing is, this it the only photo I have with everyone named in it.

Hi again everyone!  This is another tintype.  I believe the young lady standing is my great-grandmother.  She was born circa 1871.

Thanks everyone, I didn't realize how hard this one would be with those ink stains on it.  I'm uploading some other photos for touch up that might be the same people.  Maybe we can go from there once those are done.
