F.S. Lincoln Photographer

[obsucrarex]

Does anyone on here know anything about F.S. Lincoln a 1930's photographer out of NYC. He mainly worked in architectural photographs and was contracted by Williamsburg, VA to document the restoration of Williamsburg. He was a family friend and I have come into ownership of two signed photographs. I desperately want to figure out the code on the back because it will tell me what the photographs are of, but I can not find ANYTHING on him. The unique thing about it is they are stamped " for reference only" the only other image i could find of his stamp says something along the lines of no copies w.o giveing him credit. This makes me think they may be original copies from Williamsburg because Williamsburg Society held the right to reprint his work not him, but I am not sure.
Does anyone on her know of him and his work? Even if you don't know much I'd like to know if you've at least heard of him. Thank you

He was a friend of our family as well, and took the most amazing photographs of our family's NYC townhouse, and a family "apartment" also in NYC. All of our photos from him, about 20, are hand signed and dated and also include the somewhat cryptic numbering system you mention. Would also like to find out more about him...
