This copy with previous owner's name on inside front wrap "CSA 1861 / Capt Marsh / 20th N.C." We have not located anyone by that name in the 20th NC, but there were Marshes in other North Carolina units. William T. Marsh of Bath, NC was a Captain in the Pamlico Rifles/4th NC Infy. (WIA Antietam, died 8 days later). The Palmer-Marsh house in Bath is a National Historic Landmark and museum today.) Edward Stanley Marsh rose to Captain of Co. I in the 4th NC Infy. (WIA Chancellorsville) Without at least a first initial, it is difficult to track down this "Capt. Marsh."
