DOUBLE SPOUT TIN CANTEEN: This canteen was used by William Lunsford of the 9th Va. Cavalry. The mounted arm of the CS army liked these canteens since the soldier could drink from one spout and his horse could use the other. Papers obtained with this canteen indicates that Lunsford was captured in June of 1864 during the first battles in front of Petersburg. The cover appears to be a fine weave material, maybe linen, covered with a black waterproofing. It is very fragile. The canteen actually had two separate compartments for separating liquids and was most likely a private purchase. Courtesy Henry Story.

ANOTHER DOUBLE SPOUT TIN CANTEEN: This is a variant of the two spout, divided compartment, tin canteen. One spout has a M-1858 stopper with jack chain. It almost appears that there should be a bottom section but there is no sign of one ever being present. I am listing it as Confederate but I have no province of Confederate use. Compliments of Henry Story.

Shown above is a dug CS tin drum canteen found with it's iron roller buckle which is pictured to the right of the canteen. The iron buckle indicates that this canteen may have had a leather strap which is some what unusual for a Confederate manfactured canteen. This one was dug at Petersburg in an area vacated by CS forces when the Union attacked in June of 1864. The canteen on the right is a non-dug example of a very similar canteen. Notice the carved wooden spout and leather strap. Unfortunately the iron buckle has broken off the strap at some time in the past.

This is a tin drum canteen with old cork stopper and a cotton web sling. Straps for Confederate manufactured tin drum and wooden canteens were also frequently made of ornasburg material. This canteen is most likely a militia or small contract manufactured canteen. All of the sling loops are different sizes. The diameter is not quite 6 inches and the sides are slightly convex. The web sling is 1 and 1/8 inch wide.
