Title

A Guide to the Dixie Gray Chapter, Children of the Confederacy Collection.

Description

The collection consists of four scrapbooks, covering club activities from 1949-1955, and additional loose documents. The scrapbooks were compiled by Dixie Gray members and document the history of the Civil War and the activities of the club through newspaper and magazine clippings, as well as historic site ephemera. The additional documents include handwritten letters from two Civil War soldiers, George M. Hanson and Julius B. Buford, written during the war; the Sept. 6, 1865, issue of the Daily Republican newspaper, Lynchburg, Virginia; and a photograph of a portrait of Robert E. Lee.
