Abstract
Images in this collection predominantly relate to the American Civil War—its battles, rank and file soldiers, leaders, veterans, politics and symbolism. A large portion of this material focuses on soldiers and leaders from Illinois, with a wider focus on soldiers from the American Midwest. Many formats are represented, from early photographic formats like tintypes to postcards to oil paintings. Selected items from this collection are available in the Library's Wayne Whalen Digital Archive of the Grand Army of the Republic and Civil War Collections.
Biographical/Historical
Near the end of 1860, South Carolina became the first state to secede from the Union. Within a few months, ten more states had seceded. The American Civil War officially began April 12, 1861, at Fort Sumter in Charleston, South Carolina. Illinois participated on the Union side by sending hundreds of thousands of troops into battle. Many military and political leaders trace their roots to Illinois. The war lasted nearly four years, ending on April 9, 1865, when the Confederacy surrendered. A few days later, on April 14, 1865, President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated.
Not long after the war ended, veterans began forming organizations. One of the longest-lasting was the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR), begun in April 1866 in Decatur, Illinois. Posts were established in different places, grouped under state-level departments, in turn grouped under a national commandery-in-chief. The GAR disbanded in 1956 when the last veteran died.
In Chicago, the GAR Memorial Hall Association shared space with Chicago Public Library (CPL). In 1883, the Library Board chose the corner of Michigan Avenue and Randolph Street as the location for its future building. At the time, the site was vacant and known as Dearborn Park, named for its proximity to the site of Fort Dearborn. Because of this proximity, many people believed the land was reserved for the GAR. Ultimately, legal action determined the library could have the land, but it had to make room for the GAR, which wanted a memorial hall for its members. CPL gave the GAR extensive rooms and signed a fifty-year lease that expired in 1947. At that time, the Library took over caring for the GAR’s significant collection of art, artifacts, papers, weapons and more. With the GAR’s material as a base, the library has continued to build its Civil War collection over the years, with a focus on the Illinois experience.

Container Inventory
Series 1: Individuals, 1857-2008, undated
Scope and Contents
Series 1 features images of individual people, often soldiers or military and political leaders. The bulk of the images are photographic carte-de-visites. The format of the carte-de-visites in the collection range from photographs to photogravures or engraved prints. Invented in Paris by photographer André Adolphe Eugène Disdéri in 1954, these small photograph cards were traded among friends and visitors in the 1860s and were often displayed in albums. By the 1870s, the carte-de-visite was supplanted by the cabinet card, a slightly larger albumin photograph mounted on a card. These remained popular through the turn of the 20th century.
Accession numbers 72.988.3.1-72.988.3.60 are found or were originally found in the 77th Illinois Infantry photograph album. It is possible this album belonged to Milgrove Parmenter (seen in photo 72.988.3.14). The 77th was formed with men living in and around Peoria, Illinois, in 1862 under the command of David Grier. The 77th fought at Vicksburg, New Orleans and other areas in the Gulf region. They mustered out in July 1865 in Mobile, Alabama.
Accession numbers 72.986.1-72.986.50 are found in the Officers of the 11th Illinois photograph album. The 11th was organized in 1861 in Cairo, Illinois, under the command of W.H.L. Wallace. The unit fought at Fort Donelson and Shiloh in Tennessee and Vicksburg in Mississippi. The men mustered out in Baton Rouge, Louisiana in 1865.
Accession numbers 72.915.1-72.915.24 are found in an unnamed album with unknown provenance. Referred to in the descriptions as “Civil War album,” the images are mostly of Civil War leaders. Those photographs of rank-and-file soldiers most often depict men from Massachusetts regiments.
Items with accession numbers from 80.1-80.34, along with 89.11.42 and 89.11.45, belonged to Captain Israel Parsons (I.P.) Rumsey, one of the original officers of Company B of the 1st Illinois Light Infantry, called Taylor’s Battery because it was organized by Captain Ezra Taylor. Rumsey was a member of the Chicago Board of Trade and later lived in Lake Forest, Illinois. Company B mustered in on July 21, 1861, and fought in sixteen battles including Shiloh, Vicksburg and Atlanta. See also Reunions of Taylor’s Battery, 18th Anniversary of the Battle of Fort Donelson, February 14, 1880; 25th Anniversary of the Battle of Belmont, November 6, 1886 (call number: E505.8 1st B.U55 1890).

Series 2: Two or More Individuals, 1861-1907, undated
Scope and Contents
Series 2 contains groups of people, including pages from albums with multiple individual portraits on one page. The two formally arranged and published albums are: The Army of the Cumberland Album and Photographic Views of Sherman’s Campaign. Images from these albums appear in subsequent series as well.
It is possible that the Army of the Cumberland Album (accession numbers 72.438.1-72.438.38) belonged to Albert Dickinson, a soldier in Taylor’s Battery who survived the war and went on to become a prominent businessman in Chicago. The album includes 38 pages of photographs that feature scenes from the unit’s time in Southeast Tennessee, around Chattanooga, and Northern Alabama. Images depict members of the unit’s leadership and medical staff, as well as scenes of camp and scenes from the unit’s marching between camps.
Photographic Views of Sherman’s Campaign features the photography of George N. Barnard who took pictures in the field as Official Photographer of the Military Division of the Mississippi. 61 images were published by the Press of Wynkoop & Hallenbeck, New York, in 1866. The full title explains the contents: Photographic Views of Sherman's Campaign, Embracing Scenes of the Occupation of Nashville, the Great Battles around Chattanooga and Lookout Mountain, the Campaign of Atlanta, March to the Sea, and the Great Raid through the Carolinas. A digitized version can be found on Chicago Public Library’s website.
Items with accession numbers of 80.10-80.26 belonged to Captain Israel Parsons (I.P.) Rumsey, one of the original officers of Company B of the 1st Illinois Light Infantry, called Taylor’s Battery because it was organized by Captain Ezra Taylor. Rumsey was a member of the Chicago Board of Trade and later lived in Lake Forest, Illinois. Company B mustered in on July 21, 1861 and fought in sixteen battles including Shiloh, Vicksburg and Atlanta. The photographs in this series that depict groups of soldiers were taken in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1862. See also Reunions of Taylor’s Battery, 18th Anniversary of the Battle of Fort Donelson, February 14, 1880; 25th Anniversary of the Battle of Belmont, November 6, 1886 (call number: E505.8 1st B.U55 1890).

Series 5: Illustrated Documents and Symbolic or Political Art, 1862-2006, undated
Scope and Contents
Series 5 contains illustrated documents such as famous speeches or rosters of military units, as well as symbolic and political artwork. Of note are the drawings by Adalbert J. Volck. Volck was born in Germany and moved to the United States sometime around 1848. He became a dentist and settled in Baltimore. Though he was not a soldier, Volck was a Confederate sympathizer, and he used his border location to smuggle items across blockades to the South. Volck was also an artist, and he made etchings under the name V. Blada with strong anti-Union sentiments. These scenes were first published during the Civil War and then in a limited run again in the 1880s. The prints in this series are from the 1880s reprint. These rare images include caricatures of Abraham Lincoln, raids by Union soldiers and unflattering images of the North.

Series 5 is arranged alphabetically by title with the Adalbert J. Volck prints gathered together and alphabetized within.
