[edit] In memorial of Garnett
Richard Brook Garnett figures prominately in the 1993(?) movie "Gettysburg". His demise remains somewhat of a mystery although he obviously died in what is popularly known as "Pickett's Charge". The movie and the book "The Killer Angels" suggests an extreme devotion to duty, although both movie and book are speculative.
The town of Henderson NC named its main street after one (or both) of the Garnett cousins... Engr105th 06:13, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Ancestry ?
The article mentions his cousin, Robert Seldon Garnett...I wonder if the family descended from Thomas Garnett, who was one of the "Ancient Planters" (The earliest colonists) of Jamestown, Virginia ? Engr105th 15:31, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
