Primary Sources
The printed record, reproduced in full and answered where it is wrong.
This section publishes the sources themselves — not summaries of them. Each article is given as its magazine printed it, with the damage the scanner did to it marked, and with a note beside every statement of fact that will not stand. Nothing in the text of an article has been corrected. A source that has been silently tidied is no longer a source.

What is here
The Confederate Veteran ran monthly from 1893 to 1932 and is the largest body of Confederate reminiscence ever printed. Its forty volumes were searched in full for Charleston matter; 75 articles survived the reading, running from February 1893 to December 1932. 2 more were rejected after being read, and are listed on the collection page with the reason.
