      19th century American writers:

      Top Right: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
      Top Left: Oliver Wendell Holmes
      Bottom Right: Ralph Waldo Emerson
      Bottom Left: John Greenleaf Whittier

      These writers were part of a group referred to as the "Fireside poets".

      I just joined and was not only impressed with your answer but with how quick the question was answered. Thank you very much for info on my pictures

      I buy and sell antique photos, so I have fairly good recall on many famous folks of the 19th century.

      In this group, I didn't know Whittier's face-- so it took a few minutes to run him down by association.
