Michigan in the Civil War

Wright, Allen G.

The papers of this farmer and schoolteacher in Virginia, Illinois and Marshall, Mich., include sixteen letters (Aug. 1861-Sept. 1864) from his brother Simeon Wright, quartermaster of the 33rd Illinois Infantry. The letters are chiefly about family matters, not the war.
