The photo shows three unidentified soldiers, presumed to be brothers, and is being used as a representation only. No known photos of the Agnew brothers exist.

There were three Agnew brothers in Company H. All three were wounded at Antietam. All were noble soldiers. David, one of them, is mentioned for special gallantry at Beverly Ford; and John, another, was severely wounded in various parts of his body at New Hope Church. All three re-enlisted as veterans, and all were mustered out at the end of the war.
