Pictures. CSH Button Dug from Civil War site What doe's CSH stand for? SOLVED

This button has CSH. I can't find any information on it.
Though it could be Confederate States Hospital?

Thanks

The H is very clear. I know it's not an A.
I will get a picture of as soon as I can. I have another relic
I need ID on also.
Could be "Cold Spring Harbor", I just don't know.

Possibly not Civil War related.

That's not it. The CSH is printed in capital letters straight across the front of the button like this C S H
I will try to get some pictures up tomorrow. I know it's hard to ID a button, or most anything with out
a photo of it.
Thanks to all who have responded. I'm yet looking for an answer. I have done some research on the net.
And didn't find a thing on it.

It might help to give a general idea of where it was found. What state? Also, can you read a backmark?

Two more possibilities:
Confederate Soldiers Home or Colorado Soldiers Home.

Location is Dinwiddie County Airport property, off Boydton Plank Road in Dinwiddie Virginia.
This area saw a lot of heavy fighting in 1864 a 65
Check the Battle of Boydton Plank Road.

Thanks BigC, I just said that
just trying to add some humor. :D

I dunno. Central State Hospital? :dontknow: http://www.csh.dbhds.virginia.gov/about.html

Central State Hospital is located off Boydton Plank Road. At about 2 miles from my site.
I bid some repair work there a few years ago. It was interesting, to say the least.
But ya, your idea bears some looking into. That could be the connection.
And, in reading the Virginia .gov site you posted, I found a bit of information I needed
for something else I'm looking for in the area.
I welcome your comments on any post I make. Sometime a bit of humor with a message in it.
will get the ball rolling.

" Confederate Soldiers Home " I'm going to check and see if they had a Confederate Soldiers Home around here.
Who know's? But, you guy's have given some information to work with.

Thats the best I can do right now. I will be able to see more when I clean it.
I want to be careful and not damage it.

I saw that site. You you gave, with the guy saying he never heard of such a button.
Well, now we know there is a real one. We just need to know what the button is.
