Some of those names sound vaguely familiar.

I have also always been fascinated by another officer, highly regarded... Major General John Reynolds, of the Iron Brigade. Killed on the first day, defending McPherson’s woods. The Iron Brigade was virtually destroyed that day. Of course, since it was five regiments of “westerners”, it got little notice in the eastern press (I think the same thing happened in Turner’s movie.)

I’ve always thought the story of Kate Hewitt and Reynolds would make a great movie. Where did she disappear to after she apparently joined a convent after Reynolds’ death?
