CDV is of Adelbert A. Carrier in a dark frock coat. He is a rather young-looking fellow sporting a goatee.

Contrast and clarity are very good. Mount has clipped corners and some light edge dirt. Paper is good.

Reverse has a photographer’s imprint for MORSE’S GALLERY OF THE CUMBERLAND… NASHVILLE, TENN. At top is a period ink inscription of “NASHVILLE, TENN. A.A. CARRIER, JANUARY 10, 1865.” There is also a modern pencil notation that the image is from the album of Captain Jirah Young.

Adelbert Amos Carrier was born on March 27, 1842 in Liberty, New York. He enlisted as a private in Company H, 143rd New York on October 8, 1862 and was mustered out at Nashville, Tennessee on May 15, 1865 where he was serving on detached duty at the US Post Office.

While he was with the 143rd the regiment was engaged at Suffolk, Wauhatchie, Missionary Ridge, relief of Knoxville, served throughout the Atlanta Campaign, Averysboro and Bentonville.
