Overview
Frank Baldwin was a U.S. Army general and Hamilton College alumnus. He is one of only two men to have received the Medal of Honor twice, for actions in the Civil War and the Indian Wars respectively.
Relevance to Research
Baldwin is mentioned in a February 1912 Hamilton Life article listing the patronesses of a Brooklyn concert and dance event organized by Hamilton alumni. He appears in a list of surnames alongside other patrons such as H. C. Allen, V. L. Haines, A. E. Blackmar, and others. The mention is a bare surname in a social listing.
Notes
The corpus mention is extremely brief — “Frank Baldwin” appears in a list of patronesses’ surnames with no additional context or identification. Attribution to the general Frank Baldwin (Hamilton alumnus) is plausible given the alumni context of the event, but cannot be confirmed from this source alone.
