Luke Tiernan Brien (December 22, 1827 - November 25, 1912) Born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland, he spent most of his adult life as a farmer in Baltimore County until 1854, when he moved to a farm outside Hagerstown. During the American Civil War, he served as volunteer aide to Confederate Brigadier General Jeb Stuart in 1861 and was at First Mananssas in July. He was commissioned Captain and Assistant Adjutant General (AAG) on the General's staff on 24 September 1861, and appointed Lieutenant Colonel of the 1st Virginia Cavalry in April 1862. He resigned his commission in the First Virginia on 30 September 1862, probably for reasons of health, and worked a plantation in North Carolina as overseer. Apparently recovered, he took an appointment as Major and AAG on the staff of Major Genera
