    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.
