William T Wright was Great-Great Grandfather. He enlisted in 1861 and was mustered out in 1865. He was under aged when he enlisted(15). He was a prisoner of war at Petersburg for some time. After the war, he settled in Baltimore. I have located two documents that verify his Civil War service. One is the 1880 Census and the other is the Maryland 1890 Veterans Census.

Charles Ryland Pollard - 1st Lieutenant
I read Robert Krick''s regimental history many years ago. Would like to know more about my great-grandfather Pollard''s activities as adjutant. I know he was mustered in as part of the King George Grays in Orange County, VA in 1861 and ended the War at the surrender at Appomattox. Some materials he left with the Confederate Museum (that I saw some 20 years ago) stated that he was wounded twice within the last 10 days of the War, once at Five Forks and again at Sailor''s Creek (if I recall the entry correctly).
