George A. Hubbard (1843-1914), a native of Oneida County, New York, served in the 117th New York Infantry during the American Civil War. The collection consists of letters, diaries, notes and carte-de-visite photographs, mainly recording George A. Hubbard's Civil War service in the 117th New York Infantry from 1862-1865. Hubbard's diary for 1861 describes his daily life in Sauquoit (Oneida County), New York. His letters, all addressed to his parents, and his remaining diaries, provide detailed description of his daily activities in military service, from camp life to battles. Also present are Hubbard's notes and those of later researchers, and five carte-de-visite photographs of men in military uniform, all identified, three of whom served in the 117th Infantry.
