  • Notes 
    • Richard Steuart Latrobe was a member of the Baltimore Bar. He was in the Confederate Army during the Civil War 1861-1865. He was a private in Company C, 1st Maryland Cavalry, CSA. and received permission as a paroled prisoner of war to return to his home at the Relay House, Maryland on May 11, 1865.
      General Moxley after being paroled on his way to Lynchburg writes as follows: "Some time after I came up with a young Maryland cavalryman making his way back to Baltimore. He had no coat or jacket, although the rest of him was good, and I wanted to know why. "Well,"said young Latrobe (it was his friend's brother - his friend being Osmun Latrobe), my horse wanted a set of shoes. The farrier would not look at my money, but took the jacket, I got my shoes." Note: at that time Confederate money was worthless.

      He is often refered to as R. Stewart or just Stewart. The 1850 census shows him being 5 years old and a twin of Virginia, and the 1870 census lists him as 25. However, the 1900 census lists his birth year as 1849 and aged 51. This must be an error since he would have been 12 when he joined the army. Since the census was taken 7 Jun 1900 it is likely he didn't die in Feb. Also, his wife isn't listed with him; perhaps they were divorced.
