The artist's descendants to his granddaughter, Maria Fennell [d. 28 March 1880], Philadelphia;[1] bequeathed to her niece, Rosalie Vallance Tiers Jackson [Mrs. Charles P. Jackson, 1852–1944];[2] by gift 1915 to her nephew, Clarence Van Dyke Tiers [1869-1959], Oakmont, PA and Daytona Beach, FL; gift 1942 to NGA.

[1]The painting's presumed provenance was from the artist to his daughter Mary [Mrs. William Fennell, 1771–1849]. Her three daughters were Maria and Susan, who never married, and Anna Matilda, who married Arundius Tiers (William Sawitzky, Matthew Pratt, A Study of his Work (New York, 1942), 27).

[2]In her will, dated September 4, 1879 (Philadelphia, Register of Wills, W476-1880), Maria Fennell left most of her estate to Rosalie Tiers. She provided that her niece inherit "my share of the pictures and household furniture, which I own jointly with my sister Susan Fennell." The portrait is not mentioned specifically.
