Civil War Group Photo CDV 22nd New York State Militia Regiment Harper Ferry VA 1861. UPDATE Information from a fellow eBayer on this photo and similar documents presently in the Library of Congress. This albumen print is believed to be of the 22nd New York State Militia Regiment on Maryland Heights, near Harpers Ferry when they were stationed there in 1861/1862. Description: Soldiers wearing knapsacks topped with rolled blankets are standing in formation at order arms.
Three residences, a steepled structure and camp in background. Measures 6.5" x 8.5". Appears to be an albumen print/photo similar to CDV print type which has some fading, foxing and damage, as seen in photos.I have limited knowledge about the subject matter and have depicted it to the best of my knowledge. If you have questions, please feel free to ask.
