| Summary: | This photograph was previously identified as Edward W. Tarrant, the son of Edward C. A note on the back reads, "Capt. Ed Tarrant Commander Tarrant's Battery C.S.A." On close inspection it is unclear whether the man depicted is in his twenties or forties, and since both men served as officers in the battery, there is still a possibility that this is the son. The jacket is jean cloth, indicating that the image was made mid to late war, and no insignia is visible on the collar. (Edward C. Tarrant was born in 1819 and died in 1878; Edward W. Tarrant was born in 1842 and died in 1921.)
