People in attendance Appomattox Courthouse

[historybuff22]

A while back I discovered that Luther Byron Baker had a brother named Joseph Stannard Baker. In his diary he claims he was in the 1st DC Cavalry with his brother Luther and cousin Lafayette. He also claims that he was present at the surrender at Appomattox Courthouse McLean home for the signing. Looks as though Joseph may have created a few "tall tales?"
