T. Ross, Company B, 13th Virginia Infantry Regiment, A History of Company B, Rosters, Marches, Battles and Casualties (The Culpeper Minutemen)” privately published by “the author” (who is otherwise not named) for the Orange County Historical Society in 1997. It is chocked full of images, photos, maps, letters and the like. They did not reproduce very well for this book, but they obviously exist somewhere (probably with “the author.”)

The diary tells a gripping tale of this unit as a whole and of Capt. Ross personally (he ended up at Pt. Lookout.) Many friends, family members and neighbors weave their way in and out of his diary, especially when the unit was encamped near Culpeper.

Hope this will help, and I realize you may already be aware of this source.
