Quartermaster Ledger

[RGINN]

These are kinda cool. These are a couple of pages from CSA Quartermaster William Patton's ledger which shows issues to my great-great-grandfather Absolem Roseberry and his brother Charles. Looks like Charles got the better deal. They were enlisted in the 35th Arkansas Infantry Regiment, CO F. A couple of months after this they said hell with it and went home.

The hand writting is and was exquisite... and yet the expected norm for even a grade school-er. Today a kid can graduate collage and not even know how to write cursive.

Those ledger entries are great and would display nicely behind some relics!

Yeah, it's pretty writin, MJ. But not by my family. I actually saw my Grandpa Ginn sign his name 'X' many times because he couldn't read nor write English. Pretty cool that I can, though.
