Could this have been taken before 1861, the person I am hoping it is died in 1861
-
This is 1870's.

Thanks Jim. Must be someone else.

May I ask what age do you consider her to be, and could it be late 70's, or later.
-
I would say she's 45-55 & mid-late 1870's.

Someone born 1833 might fit the bill then. now to find proof ::)

This is from the original photo, I have scanned it at 300dpi.

And jpeg

Just an observation. The lady in the photo looks as though she might need the support of the chair and the umbrella (acting as a stick), rather than it being for the purpose of posing her. Of course, that doesn't mean she was elderly.
Good luck with your identification.
