Thank you for the great response to my listing. I have been away on vacation and just read my email. While I was gone I did some research in the West Virginia Archives. There I found the muster rolls and several other documents. It seem that William Dickens was captured at Gauley Bridge and was later release in Alexandria. He was then discharged and offered a promotion to go to serve with the 2nd Regiment E company colored infantry. He died in Vicksburg but I don't know if he was killed in battle or not. I just got home and have not had a chance to go over all the papers yet. It seems that he died very shortly after he was promoted. I was told my next place to look is in Mississippi. Since I am not planning a trip anytime soon. I will use the information you all so graciously provided. Thank you again, Lorna **************Get trade secrets for amazing burgers.
