1873 - Navajo boys and Squaw, in front of the quarters at old Fort Defiance, N.M., now unoccupied by troops.
Interesting story behind Fort Defiance, AZ (now AZ). These Navajo surely went through a lot to get to this point. Kit Carson was there, real American history. Check it out on the wiki page.

Brandy Station was the site of the 1863 Battle of Brandy Station, the largest predominantly cavalry engagement of the American Civil War as well as the largest to take place ever on American soil.

1862 May - Servants at Prince's Headquarters. In the vicinity of Yorktown, Virginia.
This image was in amazing condition, large and clear. No flaws were removed or adjustments made beyond the aligning of the two sides of the stereo image. The full size from LoC is striking. I’m guessing left to right a cook, wait staff, washer, and weapon smith? I have no idea, somebody educate me.
