Re: Roster for 30th Texas Cavalry
I know I had previously found a website which mentioned some letters by members of the 30th that had been copied, does anyone know anything about this? Also, antiques roadshow had an episode (I believe it was in Austin in 2007) which discussed wartime letters by the 30ths assigned surgeon (W. Pierce if I recall). It would be intriguing if anyone could ever track thiose down and copy them. I found the exert who examined them but was told he couldn't provide information about the owner of the letters. There is a picture of Private Burton Marchbanks 30th Tex Cav uniform on pg 148 of Time Lifes Echoes of Glory: Arms and Equipment of the COnfederacy. Just thought I'd add the info for any who are interested.
