Daniel Otis has a family resemblance to Ervin Otis and most-definitely to John Lord Otis, but not as much with his own brother William Otis, nor with his cousin Henry Young or Uncle Russell Young. I think Daniel looks like "an Otis," through and through. He even has a resemblance to his distant relations: Mercy Otis Warren and James Otis, Jr. They all have that same elegant, aristocratic nose. However, I believe that Daniel got the Scottish Young-family coloring with his ruddy cheeks, and auburn tinged hair, eyebrows, and facial hair. Interesting how familial similarities works out.
I wish there were photos of Daniel's father and mother (Erastus and Elizabeth Otis) and Daniel's other two brothers, Robert and George. I’d give my best "song and dance" for copies of their photos! At one point in time I’m sure their photographic likeness existed.
Hopefully in the future, something will come across my path...
