Oldroyd (pencil inscription to verso noting the photograph was received from Oldroyd in Washington on 17 January 1911).

Osborn H. Oldroyd (1842-1930) served in the 20th Ohio Infantry Regiment during the Civil War, being promoted to the rank of sergeant sometime between his enlistment as a private in October 1861 and mustering out in July of 1865. After the war he published portions of the journal he kept, with the title, A Soldier's Story of the Siege of Vicksburg. Oldroyd is best known, however, for his extensive Abraham Lincoln collection, which was purchased by the US Government in the 1920s.
