      Thomas Coleman Walters was died in the Civil War at Sussex
      Courthouse, Virginia, 10 December 1864. When Thomas Coleman
      Walters was killed John Green Lea made sure that the body
      was transported back to Caswell County for burial at "North
      Bend." Lea also gave Thomas's sword to his mother,
      Katherine Coleman Walters. The Walters family is in
      possession of a letter written for John Green Lea by his
      second wife Mildred in which he describes how Thomas
      Coleman Walters was killed. Apparently, Thomas Coleman
      Walters was on a horse just in front of Lea at the time.
      The letter was writen to Charles Stephen Walters, brother
      of Thomas Coleman Walters. John Green Lea was an honorary
      pall bearer at the funeral of John Ferdinand Walters, as
      was Sandy Banks Moore.

      At one time owned and lived on a farm in Blanch, North
      Carolina, that eventually was sold to Herman A. Smith
      (1894-1950) who married Katherine Allen (1893-1960). Sandy
      and Blanche Moore then moved to Yanceyville to a house on
      East Main Street across from what now is the Gunn Memorial
      Public Library. This building was operated as a boarding
      house and now is owned by Frank James Moorefield.
