Old photo found in a box with "Roger Boughton and family" written on the back.  I suspect this lady is Roger's second wife.

    Roger Sherman Boughton was born December 30, 1829 in Wilcox Co., AL.  His parents were Samuel Boughton and Harriett Strather.  Roger married Henrietta Neill Choat, daughter of Isaac W. Choat and Catharine McAlister, October 26, 1854 in Franklin Parish, LA.  Roger and Henrietta Boughton had a son William Allen Boughton before Henrietta died March 22, 1859 in Franklin Parish.  Roger Boughton later married Elizabeth Jamar September 8, 1860 believed to have taken place in Franklin Parish.
