Robert Lucas - Private |
Robert Lucas was born and lived most of his life in Scott Co. He is buried in Dungannon. He was born in 1841, dies in 1933. His headstone says he was in 'TRP I' of the 7th VA Cav; I assumes that means Co. I? When he died he was the last living 'civil War' veteran in the county. He lived all his life in Virginia. He is my great X 3 grandfather on my mother's side(hence the reason for different last names; Lucas is my mother's maiden name).

Thomas Lee Settle - Asst Surgeon |
Asst Surgeon, 7th VA Cav Rgt & later the surgeon of the 11th VA Cav Rgt, 1863.
Dr. Settle was eventually captured on Feb. 18, 1865--his 29th birthday--in Warren County, Va., and sent to Fort McHenry near Baltimore. His arrest papers bore the notation: “Guerrilla--not to be exchanged during the war--by order of Major General Sheridan.” The notation reflects the hatred that developed among Federal officers for partisan rangers such as John Singleton Mosby, the “Gray Ghost” of the Confederacy.
The war ended less than two months later, and Settle was released from prison May 4 after taking the Oath of Allegiance. He died in 1920.
