Flo 34 company H and I had people from Bedford Co. 42 had some and the 28 along with the 2 VA Cal. Seems like the Bedford County web page listed the units or at least one time I saw it. You can go the Library of Va and do a search of names on a database and it will show pay cards for the person Danny

George Washington Cundiff , Spicer Cundiff, and Spicer's son Nathaniel J. Cundiff, all of Bedford, were in the Va 10th Battalion, Co.B, Heavy Artillery. (Hensley's Company) They were stationed in Richmond. Spicer died of typhoid. Nathaniel survived the war, lived in later years at the Old Soldiers Home in Richmond, and is buried at the Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond in the Confederate Soldier section, grave #383. George was captured 4/6/1865 in Burkeville Jct. during Lees Retreat. He was sent to POW Camp Butler, in Newport News, a camp for 3,490 Confederate prisoners who were captured near the end of the war. George died there of disease. He is buried at the Greenlawn Memorial Park in Newport News with others who died in the camp, and there is a monument honoring those men.

Beverly, There are two Benjamin Mitchells. The first married Emily and is living with her during the 1850 Census. They have a 19 year old living with them. This must be the one who married in 1830. There is a second Benjamin N. Mitchell. He married in 1833. He married Nancy Wood. This is probably the woman that is the mother of William H. Mitchell. I find it interesting that both his mother and his wife were both named Nancy. Do you know if the two Benjamins are related? Merilyn Finn **************Need a new ride?

Lois, I know a little. His father is Benjamin Mitchell. He married Mary Jane Lyle in 1840. Mary Jane Lyle is not William's mother. There was a previous marriage to Emily Richardson. This was in 1830. William H. Mitchell was born in 1835. William and Nancy Jane had three children--Sally, Mary S. and James Mitchell. There is a fourth child who was born in March of 1865; but since William died in March of 1862, he is not his father. Merilyn **************Need a new ride?

The Virginia Infantry and The Second Virginia Cavalry came from Bedford. William H. Mitchell came from Lisbon Township. He was married to Nancy Jane Parker. John Moses Parker and Daniel Parker, the brothers of Nancy Jane Parker "Mitchell" Taylor signed on at Lisbon. John Moses Parker also was in the 2nd Virginia Cavalry. He enlisted here in 1862 at Barborsville. Samuel P. Taylor, my great-grandfather's brother, also signed on at Lisbon. My great-grandfather was George Thomas Taylor--descendent of William Taylor of Taylor's Mountain. Merilyn Finn **************Need a new ride?

If you are chasing old land patents around, or County Road Orders, you absolutely have to have one of these----http://shop.delorme.com/OA_HTML/DELibeCCtdItemDetail.jsp?beginIndex=0&item=332&section=10096 They are 20 bucks at Barnes & Noble or Borders. Best investment you can make. Edwin

To Anne: Probably old news. James Johnson was one of the very early pioneers of Brunswick county. I believe he had a son named John? I only recognized the name because they were neighbors of one of my Irvines. I believe Johnson Mountain and Johnson Creek were named after James. Anyway, he owned huge tracts of land all over. Flat Creek, Otter River, Falling River, etc. He was a very influential man in early Lunenburg. That's about all I know about the family. You've probably seen this old posting. Seems well researched.
