I have the book, SPARKS FROM THE CAMP FIRES, copyright 1891. In this book is a section titled Women's Relief Corps and its Officers. There are the following biographies:
Life of Mrs. E. Florence BARKER
Life of Mrs. Kate B. SHERWOOD
Life of Mrs. Sarah E. MILLS FULLER
Life of Mrs. Elizabeth D'ARCY KINNE
Life of Mrs. Emma STARK HAMPTON
Life of Mrs. Charity RUSK CRAIG
Life of Mrs. Annie WITTENMYER
Life of Mrs. Mary SEARS McHENRY

All the above biographies include a portrait of the woman subject. I'll be happy to copy the biography and portrait for any interested.

I'm sorry, but I sold the Sparks from the Campfire book. The lady who bought it is named Carolyn Sager. She owns a used books store called Chapter III Used and Rare Books. The address and phone number of the store is 122 E. 5th St. Marion, IN 46952. (765) 664-1071

Hope she can help you! Again, I'm sorry I can't help you.

My students researched Annie Wittenmyer and created a website about her Civil War experiences and produced a 55-minute documentary video. We were not aware of the book "Sparks from the Campfire." Perhaps it has information we would like to know. What is the cost of obtaining a copy of the Annie Wittenmyer information?

Susan Wittenmyer,
Please contact me directly with your postal information. I will send you the cost of the video plus postage. The children's book will be published soon. Still not available. Are you a relative of Annie Wittenmyer or just share the same name.?

Anxious to hear from you.
Catherine

I'm sorry I don't have Sparks From the Campfire any more. I sold it to a used bookstore. I've also seen a copy in an antiques store. I would check your local library. If they don't have it, they can borrow it from another library for free or the loaner library can sometimes just copy the info you're interested in.

Once again, I'm sorry I can't help you.

Catherine,
Do you still have the video and book about Annie Wittenmyer? I am Annie's great-great granddaughter through her son, Charles, and his wife, Susan, who adopted my grandfather, Oliver Wittenmyer. I believe you met my uncle, Charles Wittenmyer, who lives in Pottstown, PA. If you still have the video and/or book could you get in touch and let me know about these items and the cost? I would truly appreciate it.

Thank you,

Susan Martinez
