What's Your Name?!

What I know:

  • His weapon looks like a Springfield Model 1873 rifle. Google image it; you'll get lots of hits. It could also be a 1889 "trapdoor" rifle (http://www.spanamwar.com/trapdoor.htm).
  • His uniform was found in a lot of Span-Am photographs -  especially the shirt (http://blog.nebraskahistory.org/?p=1715) and hat. I've attached a photo of a soldier with a similar hat and belt, too
  • This photo came from My cousin, Mel Ferrer. He has the photo album of Agnes Grace Ferrer. She has several of this man, a few of which are stamped from the Sedro-Wolley area - so our pool of candidates narrows down to the Graces who migrated West.

Do you know who this is?
