Kaufmann alentines that truly match their conveying covers are quite scarce in Confederate postal history collections. One such as that shown in Figure 1 are treasured. Many offered “Confederate Valentines” are questionable or, at the least, not readily verifiable. The subject cover and homemade valentine on the previous page (which was, in effect, a handwritten letter with pressed and dried flowers) represent a use on the first Valentine’s Day of the newly formed Confederacy, but before the first shots of the warVV were fired. The cover is a 3¢ Star-Die entire (Scott US #U-26), manuscript canceled and postmarked from West Point, Ga., 15 February [1861].

Hess Rebecca Latimer Felton, suffragist and reformer, was a fervent advocate of white supremacy and a believer in the use of lynching as social control. Her status as an elite white woman of the New South, the wife of a Georgia politician who served two terms in the U.S.Congress, as well as the protege of Populist leader Tom Watson, allowed her unusual access to public platforms and the press. Felton, a woman of extraordinary abilities, relished her power in Georgia politics and remained a force until her death. She was appointed as interim U.S.

    H-SAWH Benson Brown on Chirhart and Wood, 'Georgia Women: Their Lives and Times, Volume 1' Review published on Monday, October 18, 2010 Ann Short Chirhart, Betty,eds. Wood. Georgia Women: Their Lives and Times, Volume 1. Athens: University of Georgia Press, 2009. 392 pp. $69.95 (library), ISBN 978-0-8203-3336-6; $24.95 (paper), ISBN 978-0-8203-3337-3. Reviewed by Amy Benson Brown (Emory University)Published on H-SAWH (October, 2010) Commissioned by Antoinette G. van Zelm New Collection on Georgia Women Covers Broad Territory Georgia Women offers rich essays on eighteen diverse women from the colonial era through the end of World War I. The depth of thought from the contributing scholars equals the complexities of the women they write about, which is no mean feat. These Georgia women come through the pages of history with elbows out--vivid, extraordinarily persistent, deeply flawed, sometimes funny, and uncommonly canny. The choice of Susie King Taylor's resolute face for the cover of this collection signals that this history of Georgia women is not limited to the real-life counterparts of Scarlett O’Hara or the women whose family names grace prominent buildings around the state. Catherine Clinton describes how as a mere fourteen-year-old Susie King Taylor escaped slavery in coastal Georgia and married a soldier in one of the first black Union regiments. She worked in the Union enclave of Port Royal, South Carolina, throughout the Civil War as a nurse, teacher, and laundress. The record of her life survives, as is the case with many of the other women in this collection, because she penned a memoir of her experiences.

If any of you have ideas about our meetings please feel free to send me an email. At the January meeting we not only gave awards and checks to Knight Essay and Eagle Scout contestants but were honored to present the Certificate of Patriotism to Compatriot Veterans Rellis High and Ed Bohon. Several By Law changes were also approved to help run the business activities of our chapter. I’m happy to announce that we had 5 of our members attend to the youth genealogy program in support of the CAR at The Children’s Garden. We currently have four member delegates going to the Florida Board of Management meeting in Orlando and have four members signed up for the Merritt Island celebration of the last naval battle of the American Revolution which is also a Color Guard event. Anyone interested in becoming part of the Color Guard please call Commander Vince Panissidi.
