I am writing a history of the 6th Kentucky Cavalry, which was still Munday's Battalion at the time of the battles of Big Hill and Richmond. If you are interested, I have a copy of a postwar CDV of Lt. Col. Reuben Munday [3 Oct 1809, Munday's Landing, Woodford Co., Ky.--10 April 1880, died near his home at Big Hill, Madison County, and buried in Stanford, Ky.], who commanded Munday's Bn./6th Ky. Cav., at those engagements. He was a native of Kingston, Madison County, and originally recruited a company of cavalry [Company D] in Madison and Estill Counties.

I also have a copy of a photograph of Capt. Isaac Taylor, Co D, 6th Ky. Cav., who had his horse shot out from under him on the 30th of August, 1862, which disabled his right wrist and was subsequently trampled by the company's other mounts. In 1883, James M. Cornelison gave deposition on behalf of Isaac Taylor.... "On the 30th of August 1862, Isaac Taylor came to my house near Kingston, Ky., very badly crippled in the following manner.... his wrist was very much swollen...it seemed to be broken, his head was very much bruised and cut and one of his ears was cut nearly off and a deep gash cut near one of his eyes... He seemed to be suffering a great deal from some internal injury. He staid all night at my house...and I put his clothes on him the next morning. I dressed his wounds and washed the blood from him and sent him home. He lived about 12 miles from me. He said he received the injury while in battle near Richmond, Ky.... Capt. Taylor deposed from his home in Erath Co., Texas, 6 November 1883..."I was a prisoner the night after the battle and received some treatment from a Confederate surgeon. After that time I treated my own case, as I was at home for some time, a paroled prisoner..... Lt. Andrew J. Henderson, of Rockcastle Co., Ky. ...."I saw Isaac Taylor...the day after the Richmond fight in Madison Co., Ky., and had a talk with him. He was considerably bruised about the head and face caused by the fall of his horse which was shot and fell dead under him." At his enlistment, Capt. Taylor was a "professor of school;" was 6'1" tall, brown eyes, black hair and dark complexion. He was born 31 December 1831, in Rockcastle County; married Eliza Jane Clark 3 February 1854, at Mt. Vernon, Ky. and died 20 April 1914, at Elmore City, Oklahoma.
