Joshua Seney, from Queen Anne’s County on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, was a member of the Continental Congress in 1788 and a Representative in the First and Second Congresses. Politics ran in the family. Seney's father was an elected official in Maryland and his grandson would become a Representative from Ohio. This late 19th century etching is by Max Rosenthal, a Philadelphia artist employed to create portraits of notable Americans of whom no engraved portraits previously existed.
