ASHBY Jr., Turner (1828-1862) was a Confederate cavalry commander in the American Civil War. He achieved prominence as Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson's cavalry commander, with the rank of colonel, in the Shenandoah Valley before he was killed in the Battle of Good's Farm. Although he is sometimes referred to as a general and his name often appears in lists of Confederate generals, his appointment as brigadier general was never confirmed by the Confederate Senate. He died two weeks after his appointment and the Confederate Senate did not act to confirm the appointment during that time. War-date partly-printed Document Signed “Turner Ashby” 1pp. February 1862, Martinsburg, being a receipt for hay “for use of COl. Ashby’s Command.” Fine condition.
