Re: McCausland's Brigade at Appomattox

Bobby,

According to an appendix in Marvel's book on Lee's Retreat to Appomattox McCausland led he 16th, 17th, 21st and 22nd Va. Cavalry during that campaign.

I'm currently trying to find out if Duke Univ. has the papers of Col. William Peters who commanded the 21st (I think it was the 21st).

My goal is to find as many first person accounts as possible of the brigade's 1864 operations for Eric Wittenberg and the 1865 operations for me. Eric has me researching Early's raid on Washington DC.
