I am currently adding new genealogy posts on my new blog
The House That Never Slumbers. Please visit me there!
For an explanation of how these photos came into my possession, see my post
Rescued Photo Album Part 1. Not all of the photos included in the album were original photos. Some of the pictures were modern 4 x 6 prints where someone had taken a picture of the original portraits with a modern camera. The following photos were some of those modern prints. That's why you can see the brick in the background.

History of Randolph County, Indiana 1882 indicates that Joab (this would be Joab, Sr.) and Amy were both born in North Carolina and migrated to Randolph County, Indiana. All but one of Joab's siblings migrated to Indiana with the Quaker parents. See the family tree I compiled in
Rescued Album Part 2.
