Re: need help identifying member of co. H 18th va

Then again, there's the possivility that transcribing his name from the originmal document, the
copyist misinterpreted the cursive letter.

I find that these letters could be confused: F, I, J, L, T

I do not believe his Company 'H' would be misread.

Do you have a copy of the base document or any other clues?
