Figure 1.-- This CDV portrait shows George Francis Underhill in a vested suit. He was known as Frank and looks to be about 11 years old or so. George wears a single-breasted suit with a matching vest. Notice the best has six buttons, all buttoned, extnding almost all the way to the collar. All three of the suit items match. He also has a rather small Eton collar and small ribbon bow, we are not sure about the color. We see a transotion in the 1870s between the small collars of the 1860s and large cpllars of the 1880s. The portrait is undated, but looks like the 1870s to us. The photographer was Edouard Nickels in Chelmsford, a town northeast of London.
