The attached picture of Joseph's Civil War portrait came from:
Andy Simon (#48504122) where he referenced it as; I wish I knew more but I don't. I found the photo among some old family papers and mementos from central PA, so I looked up where a Civil War veteran named Joseph Albright might be buried, and based on his Find-A-Grave memorial, I determined my picture was of the man buried at Follmer Lutheran Church Cemetery.
