NC Queries Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NC/Johnston/1932 Surname: Corbett, Hocutt, Wall, Tippett ------------------------- This past week I took a trip to a Hocutt reunion in Johnston County and visited my Aunt Erdene Corbett Narron for several days.I took a bunch of my genealogy stuff to the Heritage Center and let them copy it. If anybody is interested,there is a whole new Corbett file at the Center now.It now has records for several JoCo Confederate soldiers named Corbett,including my 2 gr grandpa,Jeremiah Corbett.There are 3 photos of his grave in the Old City Cemetery,Confederate Section,in Lynchburg,VA.Also a copy of the letter written by the clerk telling my grandma Willie Brown Corbett that Jeremiah had died. There are also new copies of military records of several of my Hocutt soldiers.There are 2 different men named James A. Hocutt,also Lemuel Hocutt,Caswell Hocutt,Irvin Wilder Hocutt,and my 3 uncles that were killed in battles,the brothers Elisha Ruffin Hocutt,Stephen Hocutt,and William Hocutt,who were the eldest children of the Rev. Henderson Hocutt,that started the Antioch Baptist Church. I also put in the military records for my uncle Rufus D. Wall,who was shot in the foot at Sharpsburg and in the arm at Petersburg.If anybody knows his wife's maiden name and if he has living descendants,I'd sure like to know about it. Also I put in something that a park ranger made for me,that shows the movements of the 24th N.C.Inf. Reg. at the Battle of Sharpsburg. I hope someone finds some of this useful. Gary S.
