It is good that there is still interest in Charlotte Diggs Moon aka "Lottie" . Her sister , I think , was as good if not a better person (my opinion). Oriana was the first woman doctor of the in the CSA. She went back home to raise the kids and did not remain in the war as a surgeon.

Lottie Moon is my 3rd great Aunt. Oriana is my 3rd great grandmother. I have lots on material of Lottie. My Mom was named after her. My Mom and her Mother used to do lectures on Lottie. And I lived in Crewe Virginia & I have her Urn. And other items.

I would enjoy to share more if you wish.
