Re: D.H.Rolston-correct unit needed

David Hinton Rolston was born near New Erection, Rockingham County 7 January 1844.
He enlisted as a private in Company H, 10th VA Infantry at Rappahannock Station (now called Remington) on 14 March 1862.
He was wounded at Chancellorsville on 3 May 1863 and was absent wounded on sick furlough through at least 31 August 1863. Sometime during September or October he returned to duty as he is shown present on that muster roll.
Private Rolston was again wounded, for the final time, on 5 May 1864 at Saunder's Field - fracture of left leg above knee, disabled.
He died at his home in Harrisonburg on 9 July 1907 and is buried in Woodbine Cemetery, Harrisonburg. He shares a tombstone with his wife, Siddie Virginia.
Hope this helps in your search.
