a companion to Antietam on the Web

Captain Rufus Washburn, 64th New York Infantry

Captain Rufus Washburn was wounded in the shoulder in action at Antietam, probably in or near the infamous Bloody Lane, on 17 September 1862.

This magnificent hand-tinted photograph (in that fine case) is from great-great-grandson Pete Peterson.
