Hi folks, So many families have photos of ancestors who still remain nameless after a hundred years or more Their families somehow failed to write the subjects names on the back of the photo. And then the photo becomes just another unknown picture of the past with anonymous family members. I am asking all readers to visit this web site and look carefully at the individual depicted. The page is: http://www.catawbascv.org/whoisthis.htm This gentleman is obviously a Confederate veteran. His name may have been Blankenship or Ward. He may have served in an Iredell or Alexander County, NC company. He could have been in any of the following companies, or prehaps he enlisted with a company that was formed somewhere else. 4th Reg. Co. A NC State Troops Iredell 4th Reg. Co. C NC State Troops Iredell 4th Reg. Co. H NC State Troops Iredell 7th Reg. Co. A NC State Troops Iredell/Alexander 7th Reg. Co.
