Atwood Walker's Quilt

From Annie Bernard Walker's United Daughters of the Confederacy application:

I entered the service on the 24th day of June 1861 as 2nd Lieutenant of Company I 26th Va. Regiment and served 12 months in the Peninsula Campaign at Yorktown and Gloucester Point.

After leaving there I was in the Campaign around Richmond and was in the battle at Malvin Hill and Drewery's Bluff.

In the fall of '63 I was sent to Charlston S.C. to protect Ft. Sumpter.

Returned to Va. in '64 & served in the trenches around Petersburg for 10 months. Was wounded on the 17th of June '64 by a cannon ball, & again in fall by rifle ball.

I was captured on the 31st of March '65 at Hatchers Run & carried to Johnsons Island Ohio on Lake Erie.

I was discharged on June 17 - '65 & arrived home June 24 - '65.
