[Civil War] California Volunteer Photos

I need your help boys!

I'm completing a book on the California Volunteer regiments that campaigned in the western territories (especially Arizona and New Mexico) and can't find photos of these troops. They're rare as hens' teeth! Outdoors or studio shots, officers or enlisted; I can count them on my fingers. Lots available for the Calif.100 and Battalion that fought in the East--but practically nothing on the western regiments (1st,2d,4th,5th,7th Infantry and 1st,2d, Native Battalion Cavalry). Could sure use some leads.
