MAB 33: Civil War Period
Albumen. Sixteen soldiers in the picture. Several are
identified. Third soldier from left (standing) is Edward W. Nortoni.
He enlisted in the 4th Regiment, MA Infantry, as an assistant surgeon.
The 4th Regiment disbanded in 1863 after Vicksburg, MS, and most of the
soldiers returned back to MA. Edward W. Nortoni re-enlisted in 1863
with the 59th Regiment MA Infantry and was an assistant surgeon with this
regiment. This regiment was part of the Army of the Potomac under
the command of General U. S. Grant. Edward Nortoni was with this
unit until the surrender of Lee's Army. This albumen came out of the
estate of the heirs of Edward Nortoni. We believe that this
photograph was taken right after the surrender. Others specifically
identified are: General Ulysses S. Grant (seated, fifth from
left); George Armstrong Custer (seated, sixth from left); others
are prominent military faces easily identifiable. Also of notice,
there is a black Union Officer in the photo (standing, first from left).
This old hand-colored photo is in very good condition but contains a
couple of spots on the lower left. Albumen is approximately 14 by 17
in a very ornate period gold frame.
