Excerpt from Battle Roll of Surry County, Virginia, in the War Between the States: With Historical and Personal NotesIn this labor I have been greatly aided by several Of my former companions in arms, especially to Com rade Richard R. Savedge, whose recollections of those evil days and of scenes, persons and events connected therewith remain still very vivid and accurate. To many others my thanks are also due and are hereby gratefully tendered.And particularly am I indebted to that gallant old soldier, Captain Jacob H. Clements, of Company G, 13th Virginia Cavalry, for pretty full information in relation to the two cavalry commands of Surry. By his help, that branch of our military makes a far bet ter Showing than it would have been possible to pre sent from the otherwise very meagre data at my command.And Major Blair Pegram, another one among the noble old Romans of Surry county who stood up in defense of the Southern cause, has rendered very material aid in making these records more full and complete. He has manifested much interest in this undertaking and has supplied data that have greatly enriched the accompanying notes.Mr. A. Wilson Bohannan also, the present popular treasurer of Surry, and a worthy son of Lieut. A. P. Bohannan, of the Old loth Battalion, has supplied valu able information concerning Company D of that com mand, and of other commands from this county. He has taken pains, at several times, to forward notes and facts that have helped to make these records more copious.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
