HI Silas,
I tried to send you an e-mail at [email protected] but it was returned as a permanent error in the e-mail address! I wanted to let you know that I went to the library here in VA and found in the Civil War Service Records that Jeremiah Lester was inducted and discharged with the rank of Private. He was in Company C, Unit 10 Virginia Cavalry and his allegiance was Confederate (naturally). I was so excited to find out this information. I plan to return to the library armed with more Lester names, Thomas too, to see what else I can come across. There is a Relic Room at the library where the people will spend time and help you locate ancestors. I will let you know if I find out any other info. In the meantime, I have a few questions for you if you don't mind. Where do you live and which Lester was your father? What was your mother's name? In order to prove ancestry, I will have to locate birth, marriage and death records for any ancestors we can find. Do you happen to have any of those that you can copy for me? I may have some stuff that I can copy and send to you if you want it. I'm so excited about locating a COUSIN!!! I'm so thankful that you saw and answered my postings on here. Please resend your e-mail address so that we can correspond that way. Thanks so much.
Sherry
