Carte de Visite of a Union Soldier identified on the back in old faint period pencil
as Pvt F Moore. Along with the name is the unit name of 4th Ala Infantry. More
interesting is the backmark is "Robinson and Murphy, Artists, No 4 Bank Row,
Huntsville Alabama". This was a USCT unit recruited locally in areas controlled
by the Union at various times during the War. The Soldier is not clearly African
American but could be of mixed blood. Other than that its going to be very hard
to confirm the identify of this individual due to poor records carried in these
units. Rare backmark for a Union Soldier
