| I have known Ann & C.W. Webb for 25 years. Until he passed away a few years ago, C.W. and I used to Display Civil War Artifacts at the Prairie Grove Battlefield State Park Museum. Though my collection and C.W.s were mostly military related, Ann always collected Civil War Period Civilian Items, including Jewelry, Eye Glasses, Dental Tools, and much more. So, a few years ago, she and I started displaying at the Park once a month in the Summer months, and had great fun. She also collects Cdvs and Period Cookware, and sometimes brings those items to display. I think we both enjoy showing interested visitors our artifacts and explaining their purpose. |

| " Our brigade was camped several miles below the town, at Wyatt's Ferry; where it went regularly into winter quarters; it was now the month of December, and the weather was getting cool.The men constructed shanties of pine slabs and covered them with boards rived from the same material, and finished them off so as to be somewhat comfortable." - Private Ephraim McDowell Anderson, Co. G, 2nd Missouri Infantry, First Missouri Brigade, C.S.A. - Camp near Grenada, Mississippi - December, 1862 - From the book, " Memoirs Historical And Personal Including the Campaigns of the First Missouri Confederate Brigade" - Edited by Ed Bearss |

The reverse shows the three large solder spots, where the two belt studs and tongue were once individually attached.

| Here's a Great Displaying Set of Isaac Campbell & Co. Confederate Knapsack Hooks ! The brass shows some ground action, and the tongue is frozen on the female half, but could doubtlessly be freed up. Though these used to be dug fairly often, they are not anymore. They display Great with Confederate Buttons or Plates, and this is a fine set. The link at left goes to Miscellaneous Excavated !
