A request from Patricia Wright Young

Anyone out there researching a Thomas Ireland? Likely born somewhere between 1820-1840 maybe in the area of Brighton Township.
I have just been given the attached photograph which was taken at the McLaughlin photo studio in Brighton. Thomas, if the information on the back is correct, was my GG Susan Tallman’s foster father. He was clearly an early member of Salvation Army. Any help appreciated.,
