1857-04-20 Channing Bulkley to Rev OS Bulkley letter
Description
Channing Moore Bulkley (1844-1863) writes to his father from Selma, the Hilleary home (his mother's family) in Petersville, MD. It seems that Channing and William, their siblings and their mother Anne E. Bulkley are living there while Rev. Olcott Bulkley is in Missouri, preparing for the family's move there. This is the only letter we have from Channing, one of the brothers who died in the Civil War. It was transcribed by his sister Laura Bulkley Dinsmoor, presumably to preserve its contents.
