Very nice images! Do you have an image of the 20th Kansas band?  I am looking for an image of Principle Musician Edgar Tucker.  He was originally from Indiana but was in Kansas at the time of the war and joined the 20th.  Here is an image of his discharge signed by Funston. Please excuse the quality of the scan, I did this several years ago and need t rescan with a better scanner.

Very nice collection. I focus on Colorado Volunteer material and as they shipped out of San Francisco as well, a lot of their images were done by the same photographers..

Kansas Raider:  Do you have any pictures of L Co?  2 years ago, I purchased a 1892 Krag that was a SRS hit to L CO, 20th Kansas Vol Inf.  Now after all this time, my buddy pulled the docs at the Natl Archives as they've been closed.  The person who had my rifle assigned to the was a "Hogan."  But after reviewing muster rolls, there was no Hogan in the 20th but there was a Grogan and a Hagen.  I believe it is Wyatt Hagen, as they were hand written and probably a clerical error.  There's no first initial on the document and I feel like Grogan would be hard to have that clerical error.

You have great 20th Kansas photos! Thank you for preserving them. Is it possible to obtain a good copy of several of them? Thanks.
