GDG- The Harvest of Death and the Henry Spangler Barn

[Charles T. Joyce]

Marian,
You're welcome.  "The Last Sitting" is actually my favorite of my Civil
War portrait series...I actually kept the original for myself, and just
sell prints of that.
I think its very possible Skinner is buried there; sadly, I can't find a
trace of Mrs. Skinner after his death.  I also believe that the image
was taken on their wedding day, when he was home convalescing from his
Antietam wound.

Regards,
Charles

Esteemed GDG Member Contributes:
Thank you for posting the link to your paintings, Charles.  I was 
particularly struck by "The Last Sitting," especially since I live just
a 
half-hour from the cemetery in Salisbury.  Do you know if Sgt. Skinner
is 
buried there?  I've been to the cemetery a few times and I'll look for
his 
grave the next time I go, although it probably won't be anytime soon, 
perhaps in the spring.

Marian
