Who was the soldier and what of his bride?

A Daguerreotype photo was found on the body of a union soldier that died in 2nd corps hospital. He died in 1864 or 1865. The soldier's exact name is unknown, but it was supposed that he served with the 4th New York Artillery. It's been over a century since the Civil War, but with the invention of ancestry sites, it's not unlikely that we may one day find out who the woman is and who the man was. While it was found on a Union Soldier, it doesn't necessarily mean that it belonged to that soldier. It could have belonged to a buddy of his, or it could have belonged to a confederate soldier. I'm going to link to the reddit page about this, scroll down the comments on reddit and you will find another link about a different soldier with a picture and how they were able to identify the family using newspapers.
