I found this Sons of the Civil War auxillery medal and during my research for it I've seen many similar medals except for the letters on the front, A,L S,SV any help with this would be appreciated . Any thoughts on the age of this medal?
Thanks!!
The A. L. S. should be the American Lombardi Society. The SV you will probably have to search their individual medals and tokens for more information. There are three or four of these in the eBay archives.
Thanks, what does the American Lombardi Society have to do with the Sons of the Civil War? also how do I search the Ebay Archives? Thanks again!
This comes from the Ladies Aide Society (L.A.S.) for the Sons of Veterans (SV) of the Civil War. This organization later because the Auxiliary of the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War (ASUV).
