CSA 6, 5¢ light blue tied WILMINGTON NC JUN 16 (1862) on rebacked cover front to D.C. Malloy, Lumber Bridge, Robertson County, N.C. $50.

Lumber Bridge, N.C. had a population of 82 in the 2020 census. The town was incorporated by the North Carolina General Assembly in 1891. Believed to date from 1776, the original land grant was part of the holdings of Levey Glass. The town's name comes from the hand-hewn wooden bridge over Little Marsh Swamp. The addressee is likely Duncan Calvin Malloy (18131-1891) who was born there and lived there during the Civil War.
