Was it coincidence that Raleigh and my boy TB Camp were in the same
unit
from Tx. Was Raleigh from Gilmer Upshur Co Tx also? Do you think they knew
they were fifth cousins? I have some documentation showing Capt. RS Camp
enrolled 1st Lt TB Camp 9-10-1861. Early on Company B, 7th Tx Brigade was
called Capt RS Camp's Company, Gregg's Reg't Texas Volunteers according to
this doc.
Do you know where I can find the source of RS Camp's writing of Vicksburg.
I
am near Raleigh NC or Richmond Va. I am going to Atlanta in March.
Could I
find it at any of these?
