Background

Scope and content:

Collection consists of two undated photographs taken by photographers J.N. Wilson and M. Edward Wilson from Savannah, Georgia. The photograph by J.N. Wilson depicts soldiers with wide-brimmed hats. It likely dates to around 1880, as Wilson operated under a slightly different name later in the century. The photograph by M. Edward Wilson depicts soldiers standing in a line. M. Edward Wilson operated around 1900, so the photograph may depict soldiers training for the Spanish American war.
