Nope. Not him. Having seen plenty of photos from the Civil War era, this is too clean-looking, too pristine, to pass for a photo supposedly taken in the 1830s in backwater Illinois.

I would also question the use of the scenery, also not common for its time.

Have there been proposed Treehouses of Horror stories that made y'all blanch and say, "Absolutely no way, Jose"?

Obviously someone has never read Sinclair Lewis' "Main Street." The husband grew up in the small town, the wife came from Minneapolis. In other words, nothing new here.

That Eagles link really threw me. I had to go to Amazon to confirm it. Now I have to get the album.

As for the computer game, did you know there were plans for a sequel? Warning: The below link discusses company internal politics and personalities, and in the comments, several people that were involved in the unreleased game weigh in with their observations and stories. If you're at all interested in this, create a black hole and suspend yourself in it, thereby stopping time, because there's a ton of material.
