When I was growing up in Mobile, we had a box of letters in the attic written by my great-grandfather and replies from some of his relatives. Those written during the Civil War were collected in a book by my high school history teacher, John Folmar, in the book From That Terrible Field. The move from Arlington, Virginia, to Lakewood, Colorado, via Warsaw, Poland, and Rome, Italy, took a toll on our effects. Some letters and other artifacts went missing, but I have found a few letters, which I will type up to give this blog some content.
