| Abstract: |
The Jennie Wilds and Caddie Lynch autograph albums and daguerreotypes, 1856-1862, consist of two autograph albums and two
daguerreotypes of
Jennie and Lydia Wilds, who were sisters and lived in Kent County, Delaware. The autograph albums represent the popular nineteenth-century
custom of
keeping friendship albums, and the photographs provide portraits of the young schoolgirls who typically engaged in this activity.
