On A Grave Subject

From this week’s mail bag comes a request for some help from Kimberly Sawtelle. She is researching a particular style of gravestone of Civil War soldiers. A soldier wearing a frock coat, holding a flag.  See her website for more examples. She has a list of names she is looking for photographs of, or additional family information on. Her blog, “On a Grave Subject” is worth looking over. She has some interesting information amassing their.

The following is the list of names she is pursuing photos and info for:

I would like to note that I am not much of a researcher. I don’t hold a wealth or depth of knowledge that can help Kimberly. But I love sharing information and seeing information being shared. So if my website can help facilitate that and it is of interest to me then I am happy to help.

Feel free to contact Kimberly on her blog if you can help her. She hopes to share her research when she is finished and I look forward to reading more from her.
