email from Gary C: James Armstrong (1816-1871) and Mary Jane Townsend (1817-1898) of Penn Yan. Thru my research I found her will that listed the portraits. Thru the process of elimination and the the dates and ages of the sitters they are probably more than likely James Armstrong's parents who were....Plus I had a confirmation from a neighbor of Katherine Ketcham that saw them hanging in her house and remembers being told who they were.
