Abstract:

The Devereux family of Halifax County included six daughters who lived from the antebellum period through the Civil War and Reconstruction. Crow describes how the Civil War changed the lives of three of them - Catherine Devereux (1823-1875); Mary Bayard Devereux (1827-1886); and Nora Devereux (1829-1888).
