Here’s one for those of you who enjoy regimental commanders of Gettysburg! Here we have a bust view CDV of the colonel of the 111th New York, Col. Clinton MacDougall.

In this profile view, one of Colonel MacDougall‘s colonel's shoulder strap is easily seen. His kepi shows an embroidered infantry insignia with 111 in the center. McDougall also wears a small cravat at his neck.

On the reverse, the back mark reads: “Union / Picture Gallery, / No. 112 Genesee St. / Auburn, NY/ S. Hall Morris.” There is modern pencil ID at the top of the mount which reads Col. Clinton D McDougall [sic].

The condition of the CDV is very good. The image is very clear with sharp contrast. The photograph and mount are clean with minor surface dirt. The reverse is clean as well with only a few minor spots of foxing around the edges.

MacDougall was of Scottish descent. Born in 1839, he & his family immigrated to the US in 1842. At the beginning of the war, MacDougall was working as a banker in Auburn, New York. He entered into the war with the 75th New York as captain and was later commissioned lieutenant colonel with the 111th New York in August 1862. He was promoted to colonel in early January 1863. He spent the duration of the war with the 111th. During his time with the regiment, he was a valiant leader at battles such as Harper’s Ferry, Gettysburg, the Wilderness, & Petersburg. The regiment mustered out on June 4, 1865.

MacDougall was wounded twice in action. Once at Gettysburg during the Third Day’s fight at the Bryan Barn, and second at Petersburg on April 2, 1865.

Post-War, MacDougall served in Congress for 4 years from 1873-1877. He died in Paris on May 24, 1914. He is buried at Arlington National Cemetery.   [CLA][ph:L]
