- Description:
- A genealogical chart traces descendants and ancestors of Cullen K. Bass and Amy Jenkins. Photocopies of two photographs show Amy Jenkins Bass and the Jenkins home in about 1890. A portion of a scrapbook from Southern Female College contains photos of members of the Bass family and the college buildings about 1895. Cyrus R. Jenkins' son, Cyrus Franklin Jenkins, served in Company B, 13th Regiment, Georgia Volunteer Infantry. He was killed at Spotsylvania, Virginia 12 May 1864. His diary, dating from June 1861 to March 1862, describes camp life, marches and skirmishes of the 13th Georgia Regiment in the mountains of western Virginia and along the Georgia coast. A transcript of the diary made by Linda Bogguss Donaldson in 1991 is available in the Archives vertical file.
