I have seen this image identified as General John H. Morgan.
Finding an image of Morgan that hasn't been retouched is difficult. This is the best I could locate.Given that the below image is 100% confirmed to be JHM, I'd guess the resemblance to the OP is minimal at best.

Is this the one of Grant you were referring to?I'd wondered that, too, if it was one that had been touched up for reunions or something like that. There's a fairly common one of Forrest in his Confederate uniform well after the war - he never wore the uniform again but someone had replaced his suit with the uniform for publicity purposes. Grant has one with a long flowing beard he never grew.
By the way, I think John Hunt Morgan would win the contest for best looking guy on either side!
