CDV Civil War Soldier G.H. Henderson Capt 7th Michigan

Here is a great old antique CDV photo of George H. Henderson who was a Captain of the 7th Michigan Infantry. Henderson has signed the bottom of the photo in ink and wrote his rank and unit on the back. The photo was taken by "Wm. C. North, 205 Superior St. Cleveland, Ohio" He enlisted at age 24 and was from Lapeer County. This is a nice clear bust view of an officer in uniform. There are a few minor brown spots from age on the front of the image and a few on back as well. Otherwise in nice shape. Below is some information on Henderson, looks as though he seen a big part of the war.  This photo will ship for FREE!
