Help with reading this name

[scooter748driver]

I can't tell it it's munny, mummy, murry....any ideas?

 

[JOHN42768]

I'm guessing A.D.C. might be Acting District Commander. What is the gist of the document?

 

[19thGeorgia]

Who is it addressed to?...may lead to finding who the ADC is.

 

[eBrowne]

Scan the whole document.

 

[scooter748driver]

It's a picture. I was thinking ADC might be Aide de Camp? But right now just trying to figure the last name. The initials are J.W.

 

[lupaglupa]

My first thought was Massrey

 

[Lampasas Bill]

Muncey perhaps?

 

[lupaglupa]

Maybe if we saw the full picture we could narrow down possible regiments etc. to search in

 

[A. Roy]

I was wondering about Munsey. There might be too many nn, mm, ss, ees for that...
A

That would be a good idea. We have folks around here who are pretty good at analyzing uniforms and insignia.

Here you go:

 

[Diane123]

First four letters are "Mass." I agree with @lupaglupa; either Massrey or perhaps Massery.

 

[UCVRelics]

ADC is indeed Aide de Camp.

 

[Tennessee Union Gal]

My guess is Massery

 

[Reconstructed Rebel]

Mcmurry or Mc-something?

 

[A. Roy]

Is the first word on the second line "Lieut"?
ARB

 

[lupaglupa]

Is the first word on the second line "Lieut"?
ARB

That's what it looked like to me

 

[A. Roy]

I wonder whether @lelliott19 has been invoked for this discussion? She's good at deciphering handwriting...

ARB

I'm assuming that's short for Lieutenant, as an Aide de Camp would be an officer I believe

Does the Hardee hat help ID at all?
