    A note with the item reads: "Mary Emma Hoyt, a school teacher in Los Angeles, 1863," however the brass mat has the stamp of photographers Silas A. and William B. Holmes, 289 Broadway, New York ("Holmes, 289 Broadway"), who operated from 1849-1852. Possibly this is not the original mat for this photograph, or the identification may be incorrect.
