I have found an old photograph of Grandfather Robbins - only thing is
I don't know if it's Elias H. Robbins or Cornelius Robbins.  Both men
fought in the Union army during the Civil War.  Ths picture shows a very
old gentleman (Elias lived to 76 and Cornelius lived to 85) in his Union
army or veteran's uniform in front of a cannon from that war.  The picture
is mounted on a piece of cardboard and the writing in the background
is backwards.  I believe the picture is older than the 1910s of 1920s,
if it is then it would be Cornelius, but am no where near an expert on
the matter. Does any one have an idea where I might take it for dating?
We have a genealogy library in Houston, maybe they'd have an idea?

Thanks is advance for any ideas anyone might have!
