Can anyone tell me anything about this uniform. Found this photo from my mothers side of the family. James Ellis Leftwich 1844-1921 is the gentleman in the photo. thanks for your help.
 
Hmm, at first glance I would have said frock coat, given the way it drapes on him.

I also have him on the rolls of the 54th VA Co G enlisting on 9/1/63, which would most likely put that jacket as a type II.
