Armed Forces / Help Identifying Military From Photo
« on: Tuesday 26 December 17 06:11 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
I ran into this photo recently - most likely an ancestor of mine, but I'm not sure 100%. It might be my great grandfather. Anyway, I'm having trouble IDing the uniform - the country/region, date, etc. The ancestor's family most likely came from Poland, but not sure where in Poland. There is a photographers name on the back and the only match I could find on the internet was a few photos from 1880 Plovdiv, Bulgaria - so I am fairly certain this photo is from Europe. Any help would be greatly appreciated for where this is from, the year, etc, etc.
Thanks!
