Wilson, J. N. (Jerome Nelson), 1827-1897 |

Dates: |

|
|
Contents: |
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.
