I have a photo of an original 16" X 20" photo my Mom has of my Great
Great Grandpa Jason Brown - Fuller's Ohio Brigade, 43rd OVI, Company G
in his sergeants union uniform with an Enfield rifle with fixed sword
bayonet, Hardee hat with bugle emblem, sergeants chevrons and NCO's
sword. If anyone would like to see how an Ohioan Civil War sergeant
looked like. I also have a photo of his Commision Officers solingen
sword,which I have, when he was promoted to 1st Lieutenant near the
end of the war.

ok I have emailed the photo to lstevens to post..the little bit of blurriness is due to the original photo...the emulsion on the glass negatives was very slow in the Civil war era compared with the film speeds these days..that is why you don't see any actual battle photos ...they're all paintings...and all the photos you do see are posed, and depending on the photographer's equipment and glass slides, some required more stillness than others.

Nice image! I'll work on it this evening to make it internet ready. It
should be on the site tonight.

Jason Brown was postmaster of Smithfield, Jefferson County, Ohio.  He wrote a letter to Adjutant General Buckingham requesting permission to recruit a company. In another letter he said it would not be profitable to report at the requested date as it would take much more time since the men were so scattered about. He finally mustered in in Dec. 1861. Evidently he was not able to recruit an entire company as Company G was comprised of men from both Jefferson and Knox counties.
