Appomattox

[BettyO]

Quote:My great great grandfather was in the 41st Va. Inf. Regt. What was left of the 41st was at Appomattox. They were in Billy Mahone's Brigade. He was from Petersburg so did not have too far to go to get home at the end.

He is buried at Blandford Church in the Confederate cemetery, just down the road from the site of the Crater.

Likewise, my great-great grandfather, Sergeant William Burton, 12th Virginia, CSA was in Mahone's Brigade as well. He was from Petersburg, VA and is also buried in Blandford Church Confederate Cemetery.
