TN364

CSA #11c (AD) Greenish-Blue (4-Margin) tied by a partial strike of the Chattanooga, Ten CDS. Date appears to be 26 DEC (1863) which would make this an example of Chattanooga "Rover" postmark used as an Army of Tennessee field cancel after the fall of the city. Adversity Cover made from a used Southern Express Company Way Bill displayed flapped up from the bottom and flapped over from the right. Addressed to Mr. James H. Barr, Wallstreet (not sure of the designation), Jackson Co., Ga. There is no Wallstreet listed in Jackson County, Georgia. So this must be a local name. However, there is a Wall Station listed in the county. James Hinson Barr (1807-1883) of Jackson County, Georgia had four sons of military age during the war. Cover most likely sent by one of his sons in the Army of Tennessee. Very Fine Adversity Cover.
