Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From my study of the various companies that were predominately Pittsylvania men, I found over 100 men in those companies came from Henry County. The Henry County men who traveled to Pittsylvania to enlist were most prevalent in Company K of the 38th Virginia Infantry and Company F of the 57th Virginia Infantry. A dozen or more were scattered throughout the Danville Artillery, the 18th Virginia, the 21st Virginia and the 53rd Virginia Infantries. The 9th, 14th, 38th, 53rd, and 57th Virginia Infantries would be in Lewis A. Armistead's Brigade as of May of 1862, so three of five regiments had Henry County men. Battles would include Seven Pines, Malvern Hill, Gettysburg, Chester Station, Drewry's Bluff, Five Forks, and Appomattox. The 18th Virginia Infantry would participate in the same battles, but were also present at the 1st Battle of Manassas.In previous books, I worked on finding Civil War soldiers primarily from Pittsylvania County. My strategy was to go through every page of the 1860 Pittsylvania County census, making note of all men born between 1818-1846. There would be a small percentage of soldiers that did not fit the age range that I planned on searching for later. I apply the same strategy here. There were 178 pages of the 1860 census of Henry County, with room for 40 names per page, so nearly 7,200 people. I listed my interpretation of the names of men in Henry County in 1860 who were born between 1818-1846. That number was 1,426 men. The next step would be to search, man by man, for matching records in the service records.
