Thanks for the response. I am researching another confederate who was wounded and ended up at that farm but have hit a dead end. Do you know of any other sources of that farm ? ThanksElizabeth Weible [variant Wible], 55-year-old widow at the time of the battle. Her house still stands. The barn and surrounding grounds were one of several field hospitals established for the wounded of Major General Edward Johnson's Confederate division. Two known burials on the property:
-Lt. Valentine W. Southall, Company B, 23rd Virginia, buried on the farm of Mrs. Wible, in a fence corner near the house. For more information on Lt. Southall, see: https://civilwartalk.com/threads/re...-from-gettysburg-in-1869.169182/#post-2201263
-Louis Thibeaux, Green's Louisiana Battery, was buried "back of barn."

Here's an old post on Johnson's field hospitals in case you missed it:

Greg Coco's, A Vast Sea of Misery, was likewise consulted, and over time I have gathered additional information. It appears to be generally...civilwartalk.com
