Photo of 16th PA Volunteer Infantry

I have a photo (18 x 22) in a beautiful wood frame. "Company B, 16th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry"

The photo also says in small letters "Photographed By M. W. Tennant, Newport News, Virginia". I would

like more info on the photographer and about the Newport News area. There is also a very small

picture of a soldier on the right-hand bottom corner of the photo, in a circle, in his uniform. A group of

soldiers (about 110 men), all in uniform and posed in five rows. Front group sitting on the ground, and

back group of men standing. The soldier in the bottom right-hand corner might be my GG-grandfather (Wiley).

Any help would be appreciated, hopefully a roster list would be appreciated. Thank You,
