Ruth,
Do you mean the picture might be of Peggy Collins Bynum, wife of Benjamin Bynum? I would love to post that! If it’s this Peggy, she’s also a sister to Jasper
Collins and the rest of the brothers!

Did you get it? I’m thinking it must be. I also have a tin type that is from the old house in Laurel. I’m trying to find it. It looks just like the one you have of newt except it’s a Bynum. Feel free to post any of the ones I send. My ability to send them is hit and miss. I also have a picture of Dicey Bynum somewhere. I will keep looking. As I said the original of that picture I sent is at my home. I think it’s Peggy Bynum. My Grandfather Charlie Bynum Senior) Grandmother. I am not sure so maybe you can help me find out..
P.S. I loved the podcast. I feel like I know ya’ll now. I’m enjoying all of this wonderful story. Thanks again

Still haven’t received it, Ruth. Please don’t worry about it. In regard to identifying Peggy Bynum, I probably cannot be of much help–this branch of the family is so interesting, but it’s one I never heard about among my dad’s folks. I think our branches went separate ways on account of the war. Fascinating, isn’t it?
Thank you for listening to the podcast.

Ben Bynum was Charles Bynum ‘ s Grandfather. So it has to be. I remember asking him if his grandfather was in the civil war and he said, ” Nah. They fought a war of their own.”
