Grand Army of the Republic Civil War Portraits
After the Civil War, veterans who had fought for the Union formed the Grand Army of the Republic. Around 1915, local members put together an album of photographic portraits collected from members over the previous 25 years or so. The leather-bound book was donated to the Seattle Public Library in 1971. Only 106 portraits remain, and some are unidentified, but they all form a remarkable resource for Seattle history which can now be found in this digital collection.
The setting up of our Digital Map Library was accomplished in under eight months thanks to the ease of use of CONTENTdm. We now have a solid, growing collection on the Internet of over 5,000 antique maps and photographs.”
