Enlisted in First company Sharpshooters, attached to Sixteenth Infantry, Dec. 12, 1861, at Detroit for 3 years, age 23.

Mustered Jan. 23, 1862. Joined regiment at Hall's Hill, Va., Feb 14 1862.

Missing in action at Gaines' Mills, Va., June 27, 1862. He was captured by the Rebels then paroled and sent to “Camp Banks” near Alexandria, Virginia. Eventually rejoined the 16th Michigan.

In December 1863, 294 members of the Sixteenth re-enlisted and the Regiment returned to Michigan on veteran furlough. It reassembled at Saginaw and on the 17th of Feb., 1864, joined its Brigade in the Army of the Potomac.

It is believed that this photo was taken during that furlough some three months before his death.

If you know who she is, please email me. If you are related to her and want the photo, let me know.

The person sitting is my maternal great grandmother, Flora Hall Wilson. I do not know who the other person is. Perhaps it is a sister. Flora had a twin, Cora, but she was identical, so the other person is not her twin.

Can anyone identify this picture?

Photo found at an antique fair in Scotts Valley, CA. No information on young girl in photo, but I thought the colorization of the photo was really amazing.
