1906 approx - John Sweeney portrait circa 1906, when about 62 years of age

John Sweeney, the son of Thomas Sweeney, lived in Eltham all his life (1844-1909). My brother Michael Erickson has the original large portrait at his farm in country Victoria. The following is written on the back of the photo:
To my dear sister Ellie with much love
J. F. Sweeney
