American war of independence
Photography started in the late 1820's, so would have thought the US Civil War (1860's), unless this is what you meant Peter.
Yes I did, what a clot !
Changed my mind again !! Now I've done a bit of research.
Quote - The California State Library's Print Collection contains over 40 prints depicting the U.S.-Mexican War, 1846-1848. It was United States' first foreign war, the first war anywhere in the world to be photographed,

Isn't google wonderfull

Cheers all

Thank you both for your answers
Reminds me of the old question:

In which war did the Americans suffer the highest casualty rate?
1 Civil War
2 WW 1
3 WW 2
4 Vietnam War
I guess it was the Civil War Stewey - 'cos they were on both sides.
Yes, Builder. It's amazing how many people don't consider that when they read the question. Including me when I first came across it!
