Two brothers, cousins of the author, served in the Union army and fought at Antietam, nearly in their own backyard. One of the two was killed at Petersburg on April 2, 1865, only one week before General Robert E. Lee's surrendered the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia at Appomattox. A third brother fetched a pail of water for President Lincoln and generals McClellan and Burnside during the president's tour of Antietam Battlefield.
