Capt. Frederick Beall

Searching for letters, journal entries, and/or other personal documents relating to Capt. Frederick Beall (1837-1929). He served in the 10th Mississippi Cavalry and the 17th Battalion Tennessee Cavalry. According to one source (unverified) he "was specially commissioned as a guard to protect President Jefferson Davis." After the war, he became a successful lawyer in Washington, D.C., and was very active in Confederate veterans' affairs. His wife was named Chattie MacEachin Beall, and daughter Zoe.
