SFC_Clames Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share #10 Posted January 23, 2018 Here's an image from the Wisconsin Hist. Soc. IMG_6902.jpg I have a letter from my great-grandfather, D.A. Robinson, dated Oct. 9, 1939, referencing the "greatly prized Civil War photograph of Grandpa..." as having been received by him. His grandfather is W.W. Robinson and everything I have of D.A. Robinson is in this footlocker and I'm nowhere close to having looked through it all yet. If I find anything I will certainly post it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
