Question

Any information on Charles Richardson born in Virginia in 1822 and died in 1864. Civil War survivor?

Comments

The Civil War ended in 1865.

There were many named Charles Richardson. Do you have his wife's name or other info to narrow down the field?

I believe his wife's name was Mary Roberts. His father's name was Jonathan.

Answer 1

There is a Charles Richardson, a private serving in Company D, 58th Virginia Infantry Regiment who was wounded at Spotsylavnia Court House, VA, on 12 May 1864 and later died on June 7.  There is no indication of his age.  I believe he enlistedi n 1863 and one card says he enlisted in Orange County(?)

BTW, there is a James H. Richardson who was in the same company D and may be related.  He died in 1862.
