Two More !

Even with the help of friends, I'll never thank them all.
Donald Caul placed this coin !

But today I thanked two more.

               James Goodman Pruden                           

6th Virginia Infantry, Company E (2nd), Private

Pruden was born in 1841 and was a farmer in Nansemond County. He

had brown hair, grey eyes, a fair complexion and was 5'7" tall.

His wife was Mourning A. Pruden. He died February 10, 1923.
He is buried at Bethlehem Christian Church Cemetery.

                  Josiah Joyner                               

6th Virginia Infantry, 2nd Company E, Private

Joyner was born January 1, 1839. After the war, he was a farmer

in Nansemond County. He was married on February 15, 1866 to Nancy

Monroe Pruden (b.6-11-1843 d.7-9-1945). He died January 26, 1923

and is buried at Bethlehem Christian Church Cemetery. His wife

received a pension for his war services.

While I was walking around the Pastor of the Church came out and spoke with me.
I explained what I was doing, and offered to remove the coins if he had a problem with them.
I gave him two coins, and he had no problem with what I was doing.
