George S. | Requires cookie* | | Title: | History of Roanoke County ![](https://xtf.lib.virginia.edu/xtf/icons/default/i_tei.gif) | | | Published: | 2004 | | | Subjects: | University of Virginia Library, Modern English collection | UVA-LIB-Text | | | Description: | By GEORGE S. JACK This is to certify that Lieutenant C. C. Taliaferro was a
member of Company "C," Captain Brad Brown, of the Battalion
of Scouts, Guides, and Couriers, that was attached to the Headquarters
of the Army of Northern Virginia, then under the command
of General Robert E. Lee. He rendered faithful service
as a scout and courier, often accompanying the General and
members of his Staff on the field of battle, and was with me on the
tenth day of May 1864, in the hottest of the fight on that day and
the successful charge made by our troops to recover portion
of our line seized on one side of what is known now as
"Bloody Angle," near Spottsylvania Court House. He was
wounded in the army that afternoon, but in due time returned
to duty, and was paroled at Appomattox. | | Similar Items: | Find |
