      Nice locket.

      The young man's image looks to be a tintype. Based on his clothing, I would date the image to the late 1850s- 60s. Also, the lithograph behind the tintype is Civil War era.

      I don't recognize the General, but he is Cavalry (crossed swords) and served in the 1st Regiment (US or State unit??) at some point.
