photo with Joshua Purdy JERVIS and maybe his brother George Smith JERVIS updated

Being contacted by a 3rd cousin once removed who was asking if I had of photo of his ancestor, George Smith JERVIS, has prompted this post.

I have this photo of my great-grandfather, Joshua Purdy JERVIS. I know his daughter, Grace, and her family are in it (husband William and children Scudder and Sara SMITH). But there are 2 other men in it. One might be his brother, George Smith JERVIS (1851-1927).

unknown (George Smith JERVIS???), Joshua Purdy JERVIS, unknown, Grace JERVIS SMITH, her son Scudder, her husband William Wallace SMITH, and her daughter Sara SMTH. This photo was taken probably in 1918 in Lloyd's Neck, Suffolk, New York.

Here's another photo with Joshua and an unknown.


Since Joshua's brother, George, is almost 1 1/2 years older than Joshua and this man seems younger, I would guess that this isn't George. But, if it's not George, who is it? This photo is in between photos taken in 1911 and 1914, but several photos are out of order in this section of the photo album, so dating it is hard.
