I do not know a lot about these copyright issues, but it seems to me if you reload the photo using the templates indicated by the other commenter, you should be fine. [1] or [2]. I believe the misunderstanding is that you wrote own work, which was interpreted as if you took the photo, which would be impossible for a work taken in 1860. If you do not know if it was published, I would go with the unpublished template and indicate that you have ownership of the photograph, which has not heretofore been published to your knowledge. Maybe @Gerda Arendt: knows more about loading photos? SusunW (talk) 18:15, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I know only about really my own. Perhaps ask User:PumpkinSky who is an admin on the commons (ask there, of course, he stopped editing Wikipedia and may not even look here.) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:20, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Here's what I just figured out...I uploaded a picture and used the {{PD-old}} tag, as I did not know if it was published. In the line "other" I typed "Mexican copyright of 100 years has definitely expired as subject in photo died 11 October, 1908" and it is still there. I would think you could do something similar with this one. US copyright is clearly expired. SusunW (talk) 13:44, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
