Included with this album is a postwar photograph album from the same estate containing (40) images, mostly cabinet cards, (5) of which are of cadets or militia men.

It is likely that the unidentified Confederates here were cavalrymen serving with Nathan Bedford Forrest since even the officers are wearing shell jackets.

The CDVs are generally in average attic condition, displaying bumped corners, stains, and expected toning.
