Summary

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description monochrome etching or drawing of Robert Bevier, an American Civil War colonel in the Confederate army
Author or
copyright owner 		Unknown
Source (WP:NFCC#4) Original publication: Find-A-Grave, although an earlier publication is possible

Immediate source: Find-A-Grave

Date of publication Unknown. It could have been held privately and only published recently, or it could have been published in the 19th century
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Robert Bevier
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) for visual identification of the person in question, at the top of their biographical article
Not replaceable with
free media because (WP:NFCC#1) 		He's been dead since 1889
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) Well, it's only used once in the one article.
Respect for
commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) 		I don't know. I'm not completely confident. I suppose you could put it in a book or on a postcard and sell the book or postcard. But, see below, it's quite unlikely that the image is still under copyright, being probably made in the 19th century and taken from some historical archive. It never had any kind of "market role". It was presumably either a family portrait or made by the CSA Army or something.

I'm describing it as "not free" because I'm not 100% stone sure that it is. Just being on the safe side.

Other information The subject of the photograph has been deceased since: 1889

Yes, it's probably not under copyright since it was very likely made before 1889 (it could be a later drawing taken from a photograph tho). It was uploaded to Find-A-Grave by one JM Herman: https://www.findagrave.com/user/profile/47972443. I assume he dug it out some archive somewhere.
