get much
information that has helped me greatly in compiling the data.
Handling the mail for several years of these Reconstructionists
made me quite familiar with their names and as the impressions of
youth are lasting they remained with me.

As I understand it the Reconstruction Period is from the close of
the civil war to April 20, 1877, when the United States troops
were withdrawn from the New Orleans, La., state house, the troops
having been withdrawn from the state house in Columbia, S.C.,
April 10, 1877. Therefore data since then would not be considered
as belonging to the Reconstruction Period.

Very Respectfully,
