Dear all,
I have an ancestor that was executed by the 6th Georgia Cavalry near Snow Hill, NC March 26, 1865. He was a Sergeant in the 154th New York and after a running gun fight....he and another soldier caught in the home of a southern citizen, were executed by the 6th GA Cav. (Death to All Foragers) The entire story was published in the American History Magazine back in....I believe August 2002. The complete story was found in Affadivits sworn after the war from the surviving foraging party members because the families of the two men never had a body to prove for pension applications, hence the affidavits. I have copies of the published article if anyone would like them for their 6th GA Cav research.
