MAN WEARING A STAR POSES WITH HIS WIFE AND DAUGHTER IN PIONEER, OHIO

This Cabinet Card appears to feature a father, mother and teenage daughter. Mom is holding a book on her lap and dad is wearing a star on his vest. Is the gentleman a lawman? The badge seems a bit small to be a sheriffs badge. Perhaps a visitor to this site will have a hypothesis or some knowledge about the star. The photographer is Henry E. Buck (1867-?) and his studio was in Pioneer, Ohio. Buck was born in Putnam County, Ohio and worked as a photographer in Pioneer, Ohio in 1891 but by 1896 had settled in McComb, Ohio.
