In Response To: Charles Henry and John Smith Axtell at Appomattox ()

Royce --

A band did play at Appomattox Courthouse. Some of the songs played may have been remembered and recorded somewhere.

I don't find a soldier on record named John Smith Axtell or John S. Axtell. Charles appears to have been a bandleader assigned to the Cavalry Corps, Army of the Potomac.
