  <abstract>Keidel family papers.  Chiefly the papers of George C. Keidel, professor of romance languages at Johns Hopkins University and later an employee of the Library of Congress Copyright Office, including correspondence, annotations, and writings concerning his study of Aesop's Fables and other early works.  Also includes letters (1861-1865) of Herman F. Keidel to his family in Maryland while serving with the 12th Virginia Cavalry Regiment at the battle of Antietam, Md., and as a prisoner at the Point Lookout Prison Camp for Confederates, Point Lookout, Md., and Fort Delaware, Del.  Papers of Louis J. Keidel (also known as Ludwig) include bills, insurance policies, and birth and baptismal certificates.  Also includes a biographical sketch of Christian Wilhelm Brauns, Hessian soldier in the American Revolution; and a scrapbook containing illustrations of birds and ornithological material that belonged to George C. Keidel's in-laws, the Jacob B. Garber family of Lancaster County, Pa.</abstract>
