My 4th Great Grandfather John

This one is my 4th Great Grandfather, John.  He was in the Civil War (hence the uniform).  I did find documents of his company, which I forget now (have them saved).

For some reason, my older generations looked more mean.  I look at my present family and they do not look this mean.  I bet those back then did not get messed with very often.  I know I would not mess with him.  He could definitely hurt me.  On the other hand, I bet he was a nice guy.

The site had a lot of information about this man, more than most I have found so far.  The picture from the site was in color, but Forrest switched it back to black and white, for a more natural, and realistic, photo.
