AF239

CSA #11 (AD) 4-Margin tied by the Army of Northern Virginia Field Target Cancel CC ANV-13. Coarse paper cover addressed to Mrs. J. L Warlick, Morganton NC. The address is a bit faded but still legble. Clean cover. The cover was sent by 2nd Lieut John Lewis Warlick (1834-1865) of Co B 11th NC Inf home to his wife. Information is sketchy on Lieut Warlick. He enlisted as a Corporal 4/25/1861 and received a commission in 1863. He is listed as wounded in the thigh at Gettysburg on the first day 7/1/1863 and was captured as a POW and treated at the Union Gettysburg field hospital. No information on his confinement, but he was obviously exchanged on an unknown date as this ANV Target cancel was used late 1863 into 1865. He died in July 1865 reportedly as a direct result of wounds received in the war.
