One individual identified in the my 2x great-grandfather's civil war vintage photo album.  I don't know why the reason why he carried a photo of Maj Gen Kearney.  I created a profile for Maj Gen Kearney.  Can others add to the profile?  https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Kearney-888

I wanted to share this family photo of Philip Kearney with the community. Date: 1862.

That is a very interesting photo of the General. Instead of the tough-guy image often shown in civil-war era pics, it has a gentle look and softer expression than most.

Thanks for sharing!

I found lots of stuff and added some of it to the profile. But I am also working, so I couldn't properly research and find everything. I'll do more this evening! Very interesting fellow, lost his left arm in the Mexican American War!
