Description: Original CDV of a Civil War soldier in uniform. CDV is offered as found, still in its album page, which is included. Written on the album page below the photo is:"Steven Rowan (M.D.?), Charlotte's brother died on way to Calif Gold Rush" Obviously he didn't die in the original Gold Rush, since he was in the Civil War... the writing seems a little shaky, so it could be the poor recollection of an older person who added the note years later. **** At one time I had a note that read, "Steven Rowan, died of fever in New Orleans on the way to the Gold Rush", but I lost the note! In addition to be Charlotte's brother, I believe this man was related to Walter and Addie Mills Rowan of New York, other ID'd photos that I purchased along with this one years ago. I was able to find the Walter and Addie's family tree but couldn't find a record of a Steven Rowan anywhere in it. Anyway, this would be an interesting one to research.. at the very least it's a nice CDV of a Civil War soldier.The CDV is 4" x 2.5" and is in excellent antique condition. Album page is 6.5" x 5".Visit my shop for more Civil War and other images. See last image in this listing for info.
