This group photograph was captured at the 56th Annual Glassboro Civil War Veterans Reunion at Samual S. Ledden's House, on the corner of Stanger Avenue and Buck Road. The current address of the home is 252 Buck Road, Glassboro. The home still exists; however, the porch is not present. Parcel data states the home was built in 1940; however, this date probably corresponds to a renovation. (Not confirmed)

The handwritten note on the back of the photograph is not fully legible; however, we believe it says:

"August 20, 1913
56th Annual Picnic Samual S. Ledden's Flag pole at point in his memory - at Crosskeys & Glassboro Roads at west Williamstown Christian Sharp (only man not looking at camera) By Garwoods great uncle (grandfather's brother) Died in Williamstown & was oldest living Civil War Vet living in Williamstown at time of deathe"
