Letters and photographs, 1862-1863, n.d.

A majority of the letters are accompanied by the original envelope. Letters contain battle description and depictions of soldier life.

May 30, 1863: Thanks his brother for sending him a fish hook for both practicality and to pass the boredom of camp life.

Yeaman mentions "Cousin Jim" several times in letters, who is apparently in camp with him.

The collection also includes four photographs: One of Pearl Yeaman. Two of T.B. Yeaman [likely the brother] of Keysville, VA, with one "after he shaved off long beard" and one "before he cut his beard." One of E.T Yeaman "before he married." The pictures are not dated.
