Description

These two letters were written by Eugene Augustus Albee (1837-1893), the son of Obadiah Wheelock Albee (1808-1866) and Margaret Ann Chipman (1809-1894) of Marlborough, Middlesex county, Massachusetts. Eugene was a graduate of Comer’s Commercial College in 1858. He was a shoemaker by trade prior to his enlistment in July 1861 when he joined Co. I, 13th Massachusetts Infantry. He was promoted to corporal in October 1861 and received a commission as 1st Lieutenant in Co. K, 40th Massachusetts Infantry in October 1862. He mustered out of the service in April 1864 as Captain of his company. After the Civil War, Albee took a position as paymaster in the regular army (Dept. of Florida) and given the rank of Major. He was married in 1867 to a woman named Sarah who had been previously married to J. C. Rowe. Eugene and Sarah were divorced in 1873 and she subsequently married James Tilby of Philadelphia. He death and the settlement of his will brought into question whether Sarah had ever officially divorced her first husband. First letter is two pages, includes the original postal cover, and is separated at the crease where it was folded. Please see the third photo listed for the scan of a full transcription. Second letter is two pages. Please see the sixth photo listed for the scan of a full transcription. (Description and transcription courtesy of William Griffing)
