This seemed far to long and involved a thread to get into. It will either be added to or wither away. Why Ladies Tea? Because Ladies will be represented also. This is Photographic Pennsylvania in the Civil War.
" During the American Civil War, the commonwealth of Pennsylvania played a critical role in the Union, providing a huge supply of military manpower, equipment, and leadership to the Federal government. The state raised over 360,000 soldiers for the Federal armies... "
The 50th Pennsylvania Infantry at Beaufort, South Carolina. The regiment very nearly did not make it to Beaufort. En route their transport foundered in heavy seas and the high winds of a squall. Tough men from Schuylkill County, PA jumped into action saving the ship and crew. True story. My grgrgrandfather Harry Walton is one of these men. I've always wondered how the line up. He was company ' A ', would have been in the front?
