  1. Hello everyone, I am looking for any information on the 22nd Virginia Cavalry, Colonel H. S. Bowen that was listed as UNATTACHED. My GG grandfather was part of that unit and I believe he died after being wounded in the battle of Blue Springs or Blountsville Tennessee. Very few records found on the death or wounded in the South and so far nothing from this Virginia unit. Thanks for any help. My email Lvmus101@gmail.com
