Description
An account of the resource
Black and white quarter-plate ambrotype photograph showing an African American Union soldier in uniform, wife in dress and hat, and two daughters wearing matching coats and hats. The soldier was originally unidentified but may be Sergeant Samuel Smith of the 119th United States Colored Infantry. In May 1863, U.S. Secretary of War Edwin Stanton issued General Order No. 143 creating the Bureau of U. S. Colored Troops. This image was found in Cecil County, Maryland, making it likely that this soldier belonged to one of the seven USCT regiments raised in Maryland. (Source: Matthew R. Gross and Elizabeth T. Lewin, 2010) This is the only known photograph of an African American Union soldier with his family.
