Colonel John J. Albright of 36th Texas Infantry Division

Post by Mercenary25 on Thu Apr 30, 2009 12:05 pm

He is my great-grandfather. Here is his record of military service and his military ID. He served on 36th Texas Infantry Division.

This picture is from 36th site. He is second from left.

I have some of his medals and gear which I will post sometime soon when I get pictures.

Thanks for looking!

Picture of him riding horse with his unit. Not sure which one is him. I think this picture was given to him as gift. Also here is hat that he worn in that picture.
