RiverKilt, CelticRanger-small world
I saw on the USAK thread that both you fellas had folks that fought in Jubal Early's campaign to take Washington D.C. My GG-Uncle William S. White rode with the 20th VA Cavalry, A Company. He was in the group that fought the blocking action when Early retreated. William was shot in the head and captured, sent to a hospital for a day or so and went on to Capital Prison for several more days. He was shipped by train to the Elmira Prison in NY where he lived for 2 month and then died of fever. I need to go there and place flowers on his gravesite, no White has ever done so.
Clan Lamont!
