Biographical History

Robert A. Tyson was a Federal soldier in the 46th Indiana Regiment stationed in Louisiana during the Civil War. He purchased this diary in New Orleans, December 7, 1863. Tyson had evidently re-enlisted as a veteran private soldier, and soon after the diary commences, he makes application for a commission. His commission as 2nd Lieutenant in the Corps d'Afrique of Banks' army was granted in March 1864. Tyson participated in General Nathaniel Banks' Red River Campaign.

From the description of Robert A. Tyson diary, 1863 Dec. 25-1864 Dec. 31. (Unknown). WorldCat record id: 122520145
