Can anyone positively identify this person? He is believed to be Azariah Graves (1768-1850). However, he looks exactly like the portrait in the Richmond-Miles History Museum in Yanceyville, N.C., that is labelled as Bartlett Yancey, Jr. (1785-1828).

However, several now question whether the portrait in the museum labelled as Bartlett Yancey, Jr., is actually an image of that most famous Caswell County citizen.

Any help on this will be most appreciated.

If you would like to see the portrait in the Museum, please send a message to me at rfrederi2@comcast.net. Also, for a larger image click on the photo that accompanies this post.
