Help bring 150 year old photo to life

Wow I'm blown away you guys know your stuff. I know the date of the picture 1870 but I don't have the original. I just took a photo with my phone from my family history book.

Did Maryanne O'Loughlin  have any sons who were older than Michael?

I was also wondering if the sitters may have been misidentified.

Shamrockgirl, would you be able to contact the owner of the photo and ask them to take a scan for you?

Not sure if this is any help but I think this is a photo of Michael as an older man

His distinctive brow line didn't change much.

The deep set eyes and lie of the mouth are very similar.

Good one Gadget    The shape of the nose and nostrils look spot on too.

I would agree with that too Jools, even the hairline is the same.
