Hunting for Civil War relics began, in some cases, the day after a battle ended. This postcard shows Captain James E. Lyne standing in front of the relic shop where he sells artifacts from the Battle of Seven Pines. He, also, serves as a battlefield guide. Captain Lyne fought in this battle, on the Confederate side. Postcard is circa 1900. Please see note below! ~~~~~~~~~ The great-granddaughter of Captain Lyne has been in touch with me and she would love to hear from anyone who may have information about her great-grandfather or the Virginia regiment where he may have served. If you have any info, please get in touch with Betty. Thank you! |
