This photo is submitted by Shelley Cardiel who shares a passion
for old photos. She "rescued" this and other images from an album
where amazingly the photos are all identified. This is the
only Baltimore-based image from the album.
The Willian H. Bowerman Studio was located
at 1 North Gay Street between 1880 and 1885
The photo depicts Robert Newton Glasgow and his second wife Emma Andrews.
Shelley located the following data on this couple:
Robert Newton GLASGOW was born 17 April 1839 to parents John GLASGOW (born 24 February 1799
in Pennsylvania) and Lydia Cooper MORGAN (born 9 October 1804 in Pennsylvania). Robert married first
with Catherine Elizabeth DINSMORE (born about 1845) about 1867. His second marriage
was to Martha Emma ANDREWS (born 6 January 1850 in Harford County, Maryland) about 1870.
Lastly, he married Hester Amy SCOTTEN (born 24 September 1871) about 1891.
Robert died 28 April 1914.
