I only recently became aware of the existence of the "Coburn Album" while sorting through boxes of old photographs and documents in my grandparents' basement. In one box was a folder containing a number of cards framing tiny tintype photos, each with a small note that it came from the "Coburn Album." I may not have an actual album, nor do I know if I have all the photos it once contained, but I do have this small collection of photographs that came from the Coburn Album. Based on some of the noted relationships, I believe this album to be from Anna Belle (Baker) Frank.
