Photos of Civil War Generals and Steam Trains

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.
