Osburn Family

Little is known about the Osburn family of Dillsburg, Pennsylvania, except what can be gathered from thirteen letters sent to Ginnie Osburn and her mother from Ginnie's brothers, Lewis and James, and friends, Rachael McClure and Matt--whose surname is not given. Both Lewis and James Osburn served in the Union army during the Civil War. Lewis was in Company B, 7th Maryland Regiment, while James served with Company I, 3rd Maryland Regiment. At least during the time of their correspondence, Lewis stayed in the Maryland and Virginia area, while James was in New Orleans.
