Just wondering if this photo was taken during the civil war.

Welcome from Southern Oregon (northern Jefferson).

I'd say yes but I'm sure one of our photo and uniform experts will give you a definitive answer in a day or two. Keep checking.

It looks generally right to me. The pink tinting on the cheeks is very typical of that period.

Looks like a Civil War era ambrotype or tintype. Not sure what type of uniform that is.
