1860s Letter from Charles Fish in Brandon VT to Sister Ann – Family News & Local Happenings
Approximately 9.75" by 7.75"
Book 12 page 18
Original circa 1860s handwritten letter from Charles Fish of Brandon, Vermont, to his sister Ann. In this personal and heartfelt letter dated July 1st, Charles writes about not hearing from her in three weeks, shares family updates, local gossip, and mentions individuals such as Edward and Kate Campbell, and Luther heading to Bennington to learn tinkering. He also notes someone named Powers being sick and general well-being of the family.
Includes period references to travel, communication delays, and life in rural Vermont. A charming piece of Americana that provides insight into family life and social connections in mid-19th century New England.
Great for collectors of Vermont history, genealogical research, or Civil War-era correspondence.
