While relatively unknown, Daniel F. Bakeman lived a remarkable life. Bakeman was born in 1769 and was the last living Revolutionary War soldier upon his death.

He lived to be 110 years old and was photographed in 1868, one year before his death. It’s hard to imagine all the things he experienced in his long life.
