No info on what breed, but was with 5th NYVC. Photo of trooper Elmer J. Barker was sold on eBay, of ~1870 by Crown Point photographer E. L. Johnson. Most local Crown Point photographs of that era came out of Johnson's Crown Point photo shop. http://s290.photobucket.com/albums/ll247/drrivah1/Company%20H%205th%20NY%20Volunteer%20Cavalry/?action=view&current=BarkerColEJbyEMJohnsonCrownPoint.jpg I recall mention of one named “Jeff” or “Old Jeff” captured from confederates, named for Jefferson Davis.
