Re: Pvt. Fountain Wood Cook, 5th VA Calvary

The American CW Research Database records the only casualty at Five Forks was Corporal William R. Burch. This data was most likely derived from the Virginia Regimental History Series.

His record ends with him being recorded present on Company E's muster roll dated October 18, 1864.
