He was in the 25th Virginia Infantry Battalion. There is an alphabetical roster of all Confederate soldiers. I checked his service record on microfilm here at The Library of Virginia (it is a National Archives publication), but it didn't note anything about him dying in battle at Petersburg. There is a page, however, that notes his birthplace (Caroline County), age at enlistment, physical description, place of enlistment, etc. James R. Greve Archivist The Library of Virginia 800 E.

I don't know his regiment or his home county. The only record I have found is the note in the Claims Commission filing that he served for the Confederacy and died at Petersburg. Is their a source of the rosters of all regiments from Virginia?
