I to have access to T. W. Rybottom's work. He shows a copy of the photo designated as the Rubottom home in Wales. It states that the original was in an album owned by Lafayette Rubottom. I wonder if any of his descendents might still have the album. If so the original photo may have some clues as to the location where the photo was processed and there may even be old letters. This seems to indicate that some line of communication existed between the family here in America and the family in Wales. It is true the name Rubottom is not a conventional Welsh name but it very well may have been a mutation of sorts. In my limited knowledge of the Welsh alphabet I think if you spelled Rubottom phonetically it might well have been Rhwbottwm.
