He was my great-grandfather. His brother was in the 51st Infantry. He fought at the battle of Cloyd's Mountain.

John Henry was my Great Uncle. I have verified this through pension applications. My next thing is to find where he is buried.

Lorenzo Jennings was born in Grayson County, Virginia, in 1835. He married Sarah Jane Mabry in 1858. He died in battle on May 16, 1864, at Drewry's Bluff in Chesterfield County. He is my paternal great-great grandfather.

G.W. Litton is actually buried in Brooklyn, NY at the national cemetery. His remains were moved from the Harts Island, NY, POW camp where he died of dysentery one month after the Appomattox surrender. There is a stone monument at the Litton Hollow cemetery, but his remains are not there.

Henry Hopkins Dickenson of Lebanon, Russell Co., Virginia
Henry H. Dickenson was the eldest son of nine boys, his parents being Charles Carrell Dickenson Sr. and Catherine Counts. Henry was born on May 23rd, 1837 in Russell Co., VA. Following the war he married Cornelia Quarles October 21, 1868 in Lebanon, Russell Co., VA.
-July 10th 1861 he formed Co. A, 29th Va. Infranty. More specifically they became Co. A, 29th Virginia Regiment- Infantry-Pickett's Division-General Corse's Brigade-Longstreet's Corps.
Originally Ed Smith was Captain. Later Henry Hopkins Dickenson became Captain.
Initially, Henry H. Dickenson was commissioned as a 2nd Lt. On may 13th 1862, he was promoted to 1st Lt. and on June 3rd 1862, to Captain.
On July 1, 1863 at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, the Northern Army of 90,000 met General Lee's army of 75,000. The battle ended July 3 and 'an indeterminate number of Russell County soldiers fought and died during those three days.' Captain Henry Hopkins Dickenson's company was included in General Pickett's division.
After fighting at the Battle of Drewry's Bluff, family lore says he was commended with Full Honors (equivalent to the Medal of Honor for CSA?), the commendation being made by General Corse. In searching on a limited basis, I have not yet been able to find a record supporting that information. Henry Dickenson surrendered his Company to General Grant at Appomatox. On his return to Russell Co., he found that war deserters/robbers had attacked and stolen property from his family and their neighbors. He immediately organized a vigilante group, pursued the robbers and personally executed (shot) the leader and reclaimed the stolen property.
Henry Hopkins Dickenson died November 27th, 1903. He was buried in the Old North Church Cemetery, Lebanon, Russell Co., Virginia.

Enlisted in Company A, Virginia 29th Infantry Regiment on 10 Jul 1861.Mustered out on 20 Aug 1862.

Enlisted in the Confederate Service in the fall of 1864 at Lynchburg Virginia.

After surrendering to the Union Army between Richmond and Petersburg Virginia he took the oath of allegiance to the United States at Knoxville Tennessee.

When he enlisted in the Confederate service, my great-great-grandfather William was 61 years of age and illiterate, so his name got spelled in various ways in the various musters, of which I have a record from enlistment by Captain Horne in 1862 through the period when the 29th Virginia was among the rear guard protecting Richmond while the Army of Northern Virginia went north into Pennsylvania prior to Gettysburg. Immediately afterward the 29th Virginia was sent west by railroad. His age was catching up with him, and his duties had already been switched to wagon and ambulance driver, acoording to the various muster records.

Anderson enlisted Nov 15, 1864 at Howlett Farm; present Dec 16, 1864. According to the Memoirs of J. Sidna Allen 'My oldest brother Anderson Allen, became old enough to enlist before the Civil War closed. He joined the Virginia troops and served valiantly in several campaigns. Following his release from the army, he engaged in farming.' Anderson was a member of the 'Privates of Jennings Haynes Camp United Confederate Veterans', organized 2 Oct 1903 at Hillsville, Carroll Co., VA.

I am looking to add details about my g-grandfather's experiences. I know two brothers went with him: John Wesley Branson, who contracted typhoid fever and died in Richmond and Greenberry Branson who served and returned home to Carroll County.

The war started and Great Grand Father James F. Chappell was underaged, however later signed into service to allow my Great Great Grandfather time to run the family farm and this being why they are listed as the same rank, however they both later fought side by side along with my Great Uncle H. Alexander Chappell, continue to look for pictures, as my Grandmother told me how I favored my Great Grandfather

29th VA Regiment Cavalry (??)
Only one company of the 29th (Cavalry)?? Contained men from West Virginia and that was Co. H., Capt. Ebenezer Bruster’s Company. Most of the members of Bruster’s Company were from Tazewell County but some were residents of McDowell County.

The 29th Virginia Volunteer Infantry Regiment was an infantry regiment raised in Virginia for service in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War.
It fought mostly in western Virginia, Kentucky, North Carolina, and Virginia.
The 29th Virginia was authorized in November, 1861, and was to contain seven companies under Colonel A.C. Moore and three companies at Pound Gap.
However, this organization never took place.
Moore's five companies from Abingdon and companies raised in the spring of 1862 evidently made up the nine-company regiment.
The men were recruited from the counties of Fayette, Raleigh, Mercer, Wise, Russell, Tazewell, Wythe, and Carroll.
It was assigned to the Valley District, Department of Northern Virginia, then moved to Kentucky where it was engaged at Middle Creek.
Later it saw action in Western Virginia and for a time served in North Carolina under General French.
In March, 1863, it totalled 732 men.
Attached to General Corse's Brigade the unit participated in Longstreet's Suffolk Expedition and during the Gettysburg Campaign was on detached duty in Tennessee and North Carolina.
In the spring of 1864 it returned to Virginia and took its place in the Petersburg trenches north and south of the James River and ended the war at Appomattox.
Many were lost at Sayler's Creek, and only 1 officer and 27 men surrendered on April 9, 1865.
The field officers were Colonels James Giles and Alfred C. Moore;
Lieutenant Colonels Alexander Haynes, William Leigh, and Edwin R. Smith;
and Majors Ebenezer Bruster, William R.B. Horne, and Isaac White.
