The soldier’s body was found near the center of Gettysburg with no identification — no regimental numbers on his cap, no corps badge on his jacket, no letters, no diary. Nothing save for an ambrotype (an early type of photograph popular in the late 1850s and 1860s) of three small children clutched in his hand.

You trying to make the ladies cry or somethin?

I have quite a few older photos of family I have no idea who they are and have done Genealogy for years trying to find out about the photos. I have been able to id many though. Fun.
