Jim and all:

As you know, I have a special place in my heart for the boys of Co A, 5th Alabama Battn. Some years ago, the first time I went to Appomattox on my way to the Saylor's Creek reeenactment, I carried a vial of soil from Sumter County and placed it on Jesse's grave.

I found his grave was there when flipping through a CW "coffeetable book" of pictures on day.

By the way, just a few days ago, I stopped by Hatchet Creek Presbyterian Church just north of Goodwater, Alabama, to visit Fulton's grave. Hadn't been to see him in awhile.
