Thomas H. Williamson Civil War Memoirs. "My Service with Stonewall Jackson", circa 1883
Item
My Service with Genl. Thos. J. Jackson. Covering his assignment to General Stonewall Jackson's command in the Spring of 1862
Note on the text by Col. William Couper, VMI's "official historiographer" from 1934-1954.
"This memorandum is written in the handwriting of General Thomas H. Williamson and is reproduced with the spelling, etc., unchanged. There is no date on the memorandum, but it was probably written after 1883 when Colonel Shipp began to spell his name Shipp (originally spelled Ship). It also must have been written after Jones wrote his Reminiscences, published in 1876."
