Dayton Sizer Jr. was born in Winnebago County, we think Neenah Wisconsin (about 1899). The 1899 date is a Census estimatemand is confirmed by the mount style. His parents were Dayton A. and Cora Sizer. He had a brother named Eaton. We have a cabinet card portrait of Dayton who looks to be about 5 years old. That would mean that the portrait was taken about 1904. The portrait is an oval torso shot which makes it difficult to determine just what he was wearing. We think it was a fancy tunic suit. It looks to be a Russian blouse tunic with a diagonal element. Notice the fancy flower embroidery on the diagonal element. Dayton' hair is done in long ringlet curls. The mount is a new style mount that appeared at the turn of the 20th century and as was often the case, there is no studio information.
