Marcia,
Perhaps you could circulate the image to the email addresses of everyone who
has contributed to this discussion. Protocol says that files should not
posted on JISC email messages. Somebody may recognise the person in the
image.

This would be fantastic to find, so please please please try to remember
where you saw it.
I have managed to find a daguerreotype of a black person in Britain, but
who he is is a mystery. I will now start my research into who this person
could be.
Many thanks for help and advice
Marcia Michael
