Elizabeth, b. 1859 Priscilla, b. 1863 Information:1860: January 27, 1862: On the same day, John and William Vandiford also enlisted. This regiment was at the center of the Battle of the Wilderness, adjoining the Plank Road, on May 5, 1864. Jackson had been discharged, John was sick in Hospital, but William was probably present for this battle. "This immediate locality was the storm-center of the fight, and it is doubtful that any more violent and sanguinary contest occurred during the entire Civil War than just here. The road was swept by an incessant hurricane of fire, and to attempt to cross it meant almost certain death." [Reg History] January 10, 1863: 1870: 1900: May 19, 1902: |
