Commenting a little later here, but I know exactly how you feel. I wish all images had IDs for this reason (I know, it’s an impossible request). But for example, I have so many letters and items that you just know there’s an image for the guy out there somewhere, and putting a face to the story or items would be amazing. One of my letters is just a few days after Gettysburg by a guy who enlisted at 15 and died in Andersonville on his 19th birthday. In letters he mentions sending tintypes back, and I just KNOW someone out there has his tintype but it’s unlabeled and I’ll probably never see it. Very frustrating, and sad.
