John H. Estill, also of Co. B 8th Georgia, is

The photo caption reads:
"Veterans of the First Battle of Manassas at Wymberly July

(Wymberly is an estate in Isle of Hope, Savannah, Georgia. Wymberly
was the home of John H. Estill, where he hosted the reunion.)
Does anyone know the identity of other vets in this photo?
