The gentleman is my great-great grandfather, William Ivory. His daughter Eleanor
(without hat) and 
grandson George Collins are pictured with him on his front porch on Chicago's near
Southside. The 
woman with the hat is Nrs. McKenzie, a neighbor.

Additional Comments:
William, his parents John Ivory and Mary Lyons Ivory, his two brothers Thomas and
John and two sisters 
Bridget Ann and Mary, came from Co. Waterford (and I believe the city as well) in
1825. They went first to 
Quebec and about 1850 to Brooklyn, NY. William, having served in the Civil War,
married Ellen Corcoran, 
also of Waterford, and moved west, working as a sailor,  through Michigan, ending up
in Chicago. The 
remainder of his family stayed in Brooklyn where they are buried.
