If there's anybody with a fold3 membership that'd be willing to do a lookup for me I'd really appreciate it.

I want to see if I can find a death date/place for:

Robert Lewis Barrett
b. 1843
enlisted in Co. E, 2nd VA cavalry (from Amherst Co.) in 1861
reported to have been killed in 1865

Thanks a bunch ahead of time.
