Up for your consideration is the terrific item listed in the title.
All collectibles that are in the visuals are included in this lot. Here is what have learned either through research or from the family.
These items once belonged to Charles E. Spellman who was born in West Granville, Massachusetts, and enlisted in the 10th Regiment on June 21, 1861, at the age of 18. He re-enlisted on December 20, 1863, and received a $536.66 bounty from Long Meadow, Mass., transfer to 37th Regiment Company K on June 18, 1864. On June 21, 1865, he was transferred to the 20th Regiment Company K and was discharged on July 16, 1865.
We were told the Civil War era diary was on soldier Spellman on his chest when he was shot and the bullet hit the diary and saved his life. The other diary was also his and is post Civil War and many pages are free of entries. The paperwork (originated from family, he never married) in the photos is included along with a copy of the application for a headstone for Chas E. Spellman to located at Greenwood Cemetery in York, Nebraska. If you go to their website it will provide you with more pertinent information related to this collection. Most all of the historical collectibles in this lot connect to the Union side but there is one photo of a Confederate soldier that we were told was also family. Unfortunately we don\'t have any more information about that soldier.PLEASE EXAMINE VISUALS AS THEY ARE THE MAJOR PART OF OUR DESCRIPTION.If you have any questions please send them our try to list a wide variety of both vintage & modern sport & non sport collectibles (sports cards, autographs, memorabilia, military, ephemera, art, jewelry, buttons, pins, medals, badges, toys, belt buckles, car / automotive / automobilia, manuals, catalogs, farm / agriculture, etc) along with useful & new items on so ......
