ID U.S. Navy Captain?

[AndyHall]

This photo came across the Civil War Naval Forum on Facebook. He wears the uniform of a U.S. Navy Captain under the uniform regulation from the beginning of the war through July 31, 1862. Anyone recognize him?

There were 79 Captains on the Active List in 1860 (begins p. 18).

No don't know who he is but what's neat about the photo is you can see the outline of his whistle in his top vest pocket and the outline of his watch in the lower pocket

I don't recognize him off the top of my head, but I can start poking around...

Levin M Powell >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>OR >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Henry Allen Adams?

Best I could do with pictures I was able to locate.

Well, I've ruled out Thomas Turner, Sylvanus Godon, Henry Knox Thatcher, and Benjamin Franklin Sands, so far.

It could be a younger Levin Powell (above); pretty sure it's not Adams.

This photo does not appear in Ron Field's Bluejackets, nor in Ronald S. Coddington's Faces of the Civil War Navies.

I've also scanned through Civil War Commodores and Admirals and the Dictionary of Admirals of the U.S. Navy. Nil so far.
