More Brumfield information


More about the Brumfields

Well, I have been searching for Vincent Brumfield in the Civil War and I have got to say that we probably have already found him
http://www.53rdvacompanyh.org/

I found a Vincent Broomfield in the following site http://www.itd.nps.gov/cwss/soldiers.cfm and I have been
researching the 53rd at the following sites:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/53rd_Virginia_Infantry
http://www.victorianvilla.com/sims-mitchell/local/war/cw/roster/53/g/01/  This is Company G.  There is no mention of a Brumfield or Broomfield in this list.
http://www.victorianvilla.com/sims-mitchell/local/articles/phsp/012/  This article refers to Company I and a notebook kept by Robert Ferguson and some information on Chatham Greys.

While looking for the 53rd information, I found a list of the dead from Pittsylvania County and Danville, Va.  It a terrible long list. http://www.victorianvilla.com/sims-mitchell/local/war/cw/cas/index.htm

I must admit that I may be spending too much time on this.  If anyone should know for certain what confederate   regiment Vincent Brumfield served, please write.

Also, I am attaching a photo of James Brumfield and his wife.  He went to Ohio and returned, but she did not.
