I wanted to share this family photo of Napoléon Descoteaux with the community. Location: St Johnsbury, Caledonia, Vermont, USA. Date: Before 1913.
This is my great great grandfather Napoleon Descoteaux. I was wondering if anyone has any clue about the military branch or era of the uniform he is wearing. I cannot find any other indication that he served. I do know that he worked for the railroad. On close inspection, I can read 2nd Lieut. on his hat.
