Eastman's Online Newsletter The following article appeared on the newsletter's blog on July 16, 2004. The Special Collections Branch of the U.S. Army Military History Institute has an online catalog of thousands of Civil War photographs. You can search the catalog by name or by town, state, regiment, or almost anything else you can think of. If a photograph has been catalogued with that word, you will find a listing for it. This collection includes photographs of thousands of soldiers, enlisted men and officers alike. Here are the three BUNKER folk listed RG98S-CWP7.180 .. A bust view of 1st Lt. Charles H. Bunker, Co. H, 51st Regt ,N.Y.S. Vol. Inf. RG526S-NYSAG.1226 .. A bust view of Sgt. Charles N. Bunker, Co. H, 51st Regt , N.Y.S. Vol. Inf. RG526S-NYSAG.2262 .. A half seated view of Pvt. George W. Bunker, Co. F, 189th Regt., N.Y.S. Vol. Inf. . Please note also that this is only an online catalog. At this time, the actual photographs are not available online. However, you can easily order photographs by sending an e-mail message to the USAMHI Special Collections Branch at usamhi@carlisle.army.mil In the message, provide your postal address and the photograph identification number (Photo I.D.) of the photograph you desire, photograph description (i.e., soldier name, military unit, place, etc.). Special Collections Branch will mail up to two low-resolution photocopies of photographs to you at no charge for your examination and approval, along with much more detailed instructions, which will include charges for the duplication of photos. Assuming that you want a high-quality copy of the photograph(s), you will then mail a check for the appropriate amount payable to "MHI Fund." The Special Collections Branch of the U.S. Army Military History will create a photographic quality copy and send it to you. The prices for the lower-quality photocopies are twenty-five cents each for printed material, microforms, and documents, while copies of photographs are $1.00. Prices for the high-quality photographic reproductions are $15.00 to $25.00 each, depending upon the size and the source of the original. All in all, this is a great service to the genealogist or the history buff. You may even find a photograph of your Civil War ancestor.
