I am not, at this point, prepared to challenge the accuracy of
this guess, but can anyone point me to evidence that a U.S. Army
126th Field Artillery (or Coastal Artillery, for that matter) regiment
even existed
prior to about 1940?
The crossed cannons certainly indicate it is artillery.
The 126th is clear enough. But I can find no references to any
Regular Army unit or National Guard ARTILLERY unit so
designated, between the end of the Civil War and
WWI. If there is such evidence, please point me to it.

Sara,
I sent an email to one of our members who is great with military
uniforms etc.
His answer is: 126th Artillery, US Army, post civil war, before WWI
Hope this helps.

The attached pictures are of two uniforms that were donated to the
Taylor County Historical Society. The person who donated them did not
have any information about them because they had found them in the attic
of a house they purchased some years ago.
Can anyone on the list give us any information about the uniforms?
Thank you.
