TN366

CSA #11 (AD) (4-Margin) tied by the three line date stamp “NOV 2 1863” with the matching Chicamauga semicircular typeset handstamp to the left. Very nice strikes of these scarce postal markings. Addressed to Mrs Dr U. G. Owen Care of Mary Dobson, Rockford, Surrey Co., N. Carolina. Routing at lower left "via Columbia, S. Carolina." The cover was sent by Dr. Urban Grammer Owen (1833-1903) to his wife. Dr. Owen was the Surgeon of the 4th Ten Inf an Army of Tennessee unit. He married Laura Ann Dobson in 1859. After the war, he practiced medicine in Williamson County, Tennessee. Cover with a clean appearance with just a little light foxing and edge wear. Minor reduction on the left where the cover was opened not affecting anything. The cover is an excellent example of the dozen or so covers recorded with this scarce marking.
