Virginia in Civil War in "My Grandmother Millard and General Bedford Forrest and the Battle of Harrykin Creek" (Location)

Virginia is mentioned twice in this Civil War story. The Confederate regiment that was raised in Yoknapatawpha is fighting "in Virginia" as part of Confederate Army of the Potomac - later the Army of Northern Virginia (667). And Granny has "sent her ear-rings and brooch to Richmond," which was the capital of the Confederacy (670); there is no obvious connection between the city and the Sartorises or the Millards, but perhaps Granny's jewelry was sent there as a material contribution to the Confederate cause.
