John Fernald was a resident of Portsmouth when he enlisted on 9/30/1862 as a Private.  He mustered into Company B of the 17th New Hampshire on 11/13/1862. He transferred out on 4/16/1863 and into Company K of the 2nd New Hampshire. He mustered out on 10/9/1863.

A sharp, bust-view of John in his dress frock is mounted in a gilt brass frame with patriotic embossments.  The frame is housed in a Littlefield, Parsons, and Company Union Case with original label.  The front case half houses a mounted period identification reading “John Fernald / the Son of / Sarah A. Fernald / Portsmouth NH”.  The case is in good condition with a minor crack in the wall of the back half near the clasp. Hinges are secure, clasp and tab are complete.  The case features a floral spray motif with limited gold accenting and virtually no damage.  Dimensions of the case are 2.55” x 3”.

A very nice New Hampshire volunteer image for the discerning Civil War collector.  [cm] [ph:L]
