CDV is of Kinsman posed with his arms folded across his chest. He wears a dark double-breasted frock coat with lieutenant colonel’s shoulder straps.

Image is very nice. Contrast and clarity are excellent as is the paper and mount.

Reverse has a photographer’s imprint for KIMBERLY BROS… FORTRESS MONROE. There is also a modern pencil ID and some collector information. ID is confirmed by other identified on-line images.

Josiah Burnham Kinsman was born in Cornville, Maine on April 29, 1824. He attended Harvard and took up the study of the law and became a partner in Benjamin Butler’s law firm.

He was commissioned a lieutenant colonel on June 24, 1862 and assigned to the staff of General Butler. During his service he received three promotions by brevet, to colonel, brigadier general and major general all on March 13, 1865. He was mustered out on July 20, 1866.

After the war, Kinsman returned to Boston where he was a prominent member of the Suffolk County bar.

Kinsman died in Boston on July 14, 1912 and is buried in Collins Cemetery in Cornville, Maine.  [ad][ph:L]
