Pair of Portraits: Mr. and Mrs. Moses of Richmond, Illinois
oil on panel
circa 1815
Each 25 1/4 in. by 19 1/8 in.
Salvaged from?the burning house of previous owners, Chester Osborn and Flora Cropley Osborn, Richmond Township, McHenry County, Illinois.
This rare pair of folk art portraits were salvaged from a burning house that did not survive, located in the Northeast quadrant of Section 28 in Richmond Township, McHenry County, Illinois. A search of the property records from the McHenry County Recorder of Deeds shows that the property was deeded by Elliott Cropley to his daughter, Flora L. Osborn, wife of Chester Osborn, on April 18, 1907. After extensive research of multiple family trees, it is most likely that the portraits are ancestral to Flora Cropley Osborn, whose mother’s side of the family ventured west to Illinois, where these portraits were found and likely painted.
Elliott Cropley, Flora Cropley Osborn’s father who willed her the home, was born in Wicken, England to Edward and Lydia Fuller Cropley circa 1843. His father, Edward, born in Wicken, England on June 14, 1810 (grave marker) married Lydia Fuller in Wicken. Lydia Cropley had been born in that community on February 5, 1816. Edward and Lydia came to the United States in 1851, based on information found in the 1860 Federal census of Richmond Township. It is doubtful that the portraits are of any Cropley family members, given that they were completed circa 1815.
Flora Cropley, a daughter of Charles and Jane Weller and the later Flora’s mother, was born in Illinois in 1843. She married Elliot Cropley in the early 1860s, based on information found in the 1860 Federal census of Richmond Township. Charles Weller was born in Herkimer County, New York in January 1813. He came to McHenry County with his wife and family in May 1839 and settled in section 22 of Richmond Township. His parents are listed in the 1860, 1870 and 1880 Federal censuses of Richmond Township as having lived in New York State. Charles Weller was born in 1813 and died on his farm sometime after 1880 and is buried in the Richmond Illinois cemetery. Jane Moses Weller was born in Connecticut on March 17, 1817. Her birthplace was so described in the 1860, 1870, and 1880 Federal censuses of Richmond Township, McHenry County and she seems to have died in 1885. Given the date of these paintings and birthplaces of the family members, the sitters of these portraits are the unidentified parents of Jane Moses Weller.
Sotheby’s would like to thank Victoria Roberts and Craig Pfannkuche, a senior researcher with the McHenry County Historical Society, for conducting the genealogical research on this rare pair of folk art portraits.
