About every two or three years I post this picture of my GG Grandfather, Pvt. James Sinclair, of the 7th SC Battalion that was mostly stationed in Charleston, SC from 1861 to 1864. James was mustered in during August of 1861. The 7th SC did travel to the defense of Fort Fisher but it would be unlikely that they would have been issued uniforms in NC since they were not there very long. The coat has 6 buttons and it is cut lower than a shell jacket. Can anyone ID this jacket to any depot?
