Outdoor
picture of Rangers: We have uploaded a fascinating
photograph of a group of young Rangers, ca. 1865, which
appeared in Confederate Veteran magazine in 1904.
This was uploaded to the MosbysRangers Yahoo Group by
Belinda Thomas at Oatlands Plantation, who was given it by a
descendant of J.H. Alexander who is pictured, as are Ab
Settle, Cab Maddux, Clem Edmonds and Dan de Butts, and two
others ID'ed only as "Otley' and "James". It is such a
classic representation of the uniforms of Mosby's men that
I've posted it in the section on recommended
uniform
guidelines
for those seeking to reenact Mosby's men. Click
