I have been trying to find my great grandfather's connection to the civil war if there is one.
His name is James Madison Barker born 1836 in Lee County. Five of his brothers enlisted about the same time in 1862....Joel Barker, John Barker, George Washington Barker, Henry A. Barker, Elkannah Delanter Barker and were part of the 64th Regiment of the Virginia Mounted Infantry. I have a picture that I think is my great grandfather and he is missing the lower part of his right leg. I have been able to find a lot of James Barker's but can't confirm anything. Can you help me. I would be very grateful.
