The Preston Register
"A register of the persons who have been
either killed, wounded or taken prisoner by the enemy, in
Augusta County, as also such as have made their escape.
Compilers Note. I have thought best to economize in
space by grouping the names according to locality. The original
reading of this register may be seen in Waddell's Annals, and in
the Virginia Historical Magazine for April. 1895. When not
otherwise designated, it is to he understood ''killed."
