NC903

CSA #1 Stone 1 Position 41 (margin touches at the bottom) tied by a North Carolina postmark not otherwise identified 2- FEB (1862). Coarse brown paper cover adressed to Col Alex McMillan, Dundarrach P. Office, Robeson County NC. Period military docketing at the left "Daniel McMillan 38 Reg N.C.V. (North Carolina Volunteers)." Very Fine. There is no Col Alexander McMillan listed in the Confederate Army. The addresse is also not found on the Federal Census of 1860. The addressee was apparently a planter in the Dundarrach area, and the title of "Col" was honorary. The docketing indicates the cover was very likely from a son. There are two different soldiers named Daniel McMillan that mustered into Co K 38th NC Inf on the same day 1/30/1862. One was 21 and the other 22. Both from Robeson County and undoubtedly related (perhaps cousins). One Died of Disease in 1864, the other survived the war. Could benefit from further indepth research into the family.  A short history of the regiment is included with the cover.
