This photo is purportedly of
Calloway Hodge Manes, my great-great grandfather. However, the family is not quite sure and we cannot identify the
uniform. You probably know his story
how, although a southern sympathizer, he joined up with the union forces but
was gunned down in his front door shortly thereafter. The uniform doesn't seem to match any civil war uniform I've seen. Wondered if it might have been the Missouri
Home Guard or something similar or if the photo is of someone else and not
Calloway Hodge at all. I am descended
from Calloway through his son Calloway Hornsinger Manes and his son Moses
Cleveland Manes and was given a copy of this photo from relatives still living
in Pulaski County. Hope someone can
help us identify either the man or the uniform. Thank you.
