I have various pictures of my German ancestors and wanted to find out if anyone knows what kind of uniforms these are. Thank you!

Sorry I didn't understood that, I thought I saw an portepee on his left side. So is he a Sergeant or a Vizefeldwebel?

FALvon Kyffhausen , Yes he carries a bayonet knot but its not a Officiers Portepee . Rank and file all carry Bavonet knots or Sabre faustriemen if Mounted troop . The officiers Portepee was in silver thread and closed that is without fringes
