William Luther Thayer

William Luther Thayer. His mother was sister of Mary Tower Brice (Bruce); he served in the Civil War. T. G. page 326 No. 492 V. He is pictured in his Union Army Civil War uniform - very casual. Sepia photo by Charles Cohill Studio, Southeast corner Fifth and Chestnut Streets, Philadelphia. Could this be a typical 'farewell' photo before going off to the battlefield?
