This little Canadian boy in a Carte de Visite (CDV) portrait look to have been photographed in the 1870s. The late 60s is possible, but the 70s seems more likeky. He was photographed at the Notman studio in Montreal. If you contact the Notman Archives at the McCord Museum of Canadian History in Montreal, you can get the name of this child who we believe is a boy. The Notman negative number is 70007. The Notman Collection is arranged using the original numbers assigned by Mr. Notman, and any numbered Notman photographs found, for example, in family albums can be identified easily by using the card files, both numerical and alphabetical. So hopefully we might some day know the boy's nme. He has two perfectluy styled top curls as well as curls at the back. Brocade embroidery on his little bolero style jacket with a skirt below. It looks to be a dress styled to look something loke a kilt suit.
