History of Object: email correspondence between Alameda resident Bob Follrath (1936-2016) and George J. Albert, Cartographer/GIS Specialist at Six Rivers National Forest. The latter was gathering information to write a history on Charles Follrath, Sergeant in Company G, 5th Infrantry Regiment.
The Alameda Museum received a donation of objects relating to Charles Follrath in 1981 (See 82.19.1-4), including a photo in dress uniform, so perhaps, Bob came to the museum to access the photo. It is unknown if George Albert ever wrote the intended history.
