Small Civil War Letters Archive at Baylor

"Love letters written by a Civil War soldier in the early 1860s have crossed into the digital age, thanks to a local physician and the Baylor University Electronic Library.

Thirty-two letters were loaned to the Electronic Library by Dr. Douglas Guthrie, a Mexia podiatrist and self-affirmed Civil War buff, for the purpose of digitization, transcription and placement in the online database called The Baylor Digital Collections. Written 140 years ago from towns such as Mechanicsburg, Okolona, Queens Hill and North Duck River, the letters by a Confederate officer from East Texas are helping history come alive and reach a new audience."
