Bennett W, Green, CSN-- Part 8: His Button in a Museum


From Antiquescientifica.

This button is now in the American Civil War Museum.

There is a guilt brass CSN coat button with an identification tag dated 1894, that said the button belonged to Surgeon Bennett Wood Green (died 1913).  Charlottesville, Virginia.

It refers to a photograph that says they were officers of the CSS Shenandoah.  I wrote about this photograph earlier and believe some of the officers were from the Shenanoah, but I don't thing Green was.  But, he was in England after the war and had served on the CSS Stonewall.
