DescriptionThe carte de visite was a type of small photograph mounted on a thick paper card, usually the size of a calling card, making it easily tradeable among friends and visitors. It was popular through the 1860's, after which it was supplanted by the larger cabinet card.

Jacob D. Wyckoff became 2nd Lieutenant of Co. G, 1st NJV on June 7, 1861, and 1st Lieutenant on Aug 12, 1862. The promotion of the company’s Captain, Alexander M. Way, led to his own promotion to that rank on September 1st, 1863. He was killed in action at Spottsylvania Courthouse, Va., May 12, 1864.
