This collection of 13 letters was saved by Fannie Austin, a 19th century English immigrant to America, during the Civil War era. Included are letters received from her husband, brother, and uncle who were all Civil War soldiers from Oneida County, New York (26th NYI and 14th NYHA). The letters and several miscellaneous photos were discovered in 1974 during a remodeling project to a home in Clinton, New York.
