Laura's Letters is a love story told in letters written 150 years
ago by Laura Wynne & Bestor Coleman of Alabama. Bestor courted
Laura writing ardent, eloquent letters that lead to their marriage.
Bestor enlisted in Co F 40th Reg CSA May 1862. Bestor was captured
twice; never recovered from the harsh conditions at Rock Island
Prison, Illinois. He died a few years after returning home. Laura's
letters to her family tell of surviving after the War; of feeding,
clothing, & educating her children during Reconstruction. The
letters show the relationship with former slaves who continued to
work for Laura after their Emancipation.
