S. E. Bottolph

1859                Address Unknown, Malone, New York.

S. E. Buttolph was mentioned in The Daily Journal (Ogdensburgh, New York) on May 20, 1859. Franklin Co. Items. Mrs. Cornelia L. Buttolph, wife of S. E. Buttolph, ambrotype artist, died suddenly of heart disease at Malone on Saturday the 14th.  She had just returned to her room, from a walk, when she was taken suddenly ill, and exclaimed that she was dying….

While S. E. Buttolph is known and recorded as a daguerreian in Craig’s Daguerreian Registry this gives us a little more information.  We know have his wife’s name and that he made ambrotypes also.

  1. Thank you!!!
    I had given up looking for info on Seymour Buttolph !!!! I had a small bit of info stating he was a photographer during the Civil War, and that is about all.
    My Mom’s maiden name was Buttolph, and the name’s apparent founder was St. Botolph, with Buttolph being one of original spelling.
    What fun !!!
    I will keep looking !!
