I got my boyfriend’s dad in on this project to post original scans on my blog! He is a HUGE history buff and I should record him telling stories about old Carondelet and historic St. Louis. Yesterday, he brought over a CD with these Civil War era photos that he’d scanned. He also brought over more cabinet cards for me to scan. They also include photos of:
- Henry Blow
- James Eades
- Lincoln
- Grant
- Sherman
- John A Winslow Benton
- William R. Hoel
- Simon Cameron
- David D Porter
- Gideon Welles
- Henry Walke
- Andrew H Foote
- John Rogers
He went thru much more care than I generally do, and named each photo after who was in it, so that it’s easy and more organized.
