[QUOTE="ScanticAntiques, post: 67201, member: 339"]Hello, I recently purchased these two photographs together. One is by a noted Civil War Photographer Samuel Cooley (10th Army Corps) Occupied South Carolina 1860's It is of a house in which a fellow Orson? Orison? L. Ward resided during the war. My QUESTION is, Can anyone help ID Mr. Ward? This photo that came with it from Chicago is supposed to be him, though I'm not sure because I have no idea what he looked like or what his name exactly is! On the back of the photo is written in pencil "Orson Ward" but the dealer told me they wrote that there as the name was in the album, below the photo.. in a slot next to the photo of the South Carolina House. So I'm not sure if it's legit![ATTACH=full]17399[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]17400[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]17401[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]17402[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]17403[/ATTACH] Any help would be greatly appreciated! Warm Regards! Scantic[/QUOTE]
