Subject: [ILBOND] Civil War Veterans photo/1900/names
Date: Mon, 22 Jan 2001 12:29:09 -0700


Dear Ted and List Members,
In November I submitted a photo of Civil War Vets from Bond Co. taken
approximately 1900. At the time I didn't have the identity of the men in the
photo. Carole Shoptaw was able to supply some of the names. I have recently
heard from my cousin and now have the names of, I believe, all the men in
the picture. The photo can be seen on the Bond Co. website:
