3rd North Carolina Cavalry - History and Heritage Project

This letter from Henry Machen Patrick is a "Great Letter" from a Civil War Soldier and speaks to the Passion and Dedication that members of the Confederate Army had in doing their Duty as they saw it in Defending their States.  My Ancestor, Lacy Edwards is Buried a Few Feet from the Cemetery Marker of Henry Patrick in Trinity Cemetery, Chocowinity, N.C.
