Letter written by Boston Corbett discovered in Omaha, Nebraska
Found this on Boothie Barn. It shows a new side of Boston Corbett nobody has seen. While Dave and Carolyn can explain it better than I can, I thought I could share this.

Please correct the title of this thread to reflect that The Durham Museum is in Omaha, Nebraska, not North Carolina.

Wow, incredible find. I must ask, do you think it was written for him and he signed? What was it doing in Omaha, somehow connected to the US soldier he befriended at Andersonville? Do we think perhaps somehow he migrated there after Kansas. It is merely the next state north.
