In Response To: Re: 33rd Tennessee Infantry ()

Sirs:

I cannot thank you enough for your valuable help with my question regarding the 33rd TN. We are humbled to be the repository for such an important artifact. Although the Texas Panhandle had no role in the War (Comanches ruled this part of Texas in those days), we have received a fair number of artifacts. We are always searching for new information on our collection and the below listing is of artifacts soon to be placed in an updated Civil War exhibit case. Any information you might be willing to share about any of these units, or any help you might offer in pointing me in the right direction, I will greatly appreciate. I am aware of and have used the NPS's Civil War Soldiers and Sailors System. Thank you.

Respectfully,

Michael R. Grauer
