Identified photo of Benjamin F. Keyes, 21st Georgia Infantry, got this one today, and may use it as a bargaining chip to trade at the next Gettysburg show if an ID'd Virginian shows up. If not, I like his image though.

Benjamin keys enlisted in Co. G, 21st Georgia infantry in March of 1862. After serving in the Shenandoah Valley and the Peninsula Campaign, Benjamin was mortally wounded August 28th, 1862 at the Brawner Farm, during the Second Manassass Campaign. He died September 7th, 1862, at the approximate age of 31.
