    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/xhC.2ACE/671.2 Message Board Post: The reference to Company "F" leads people to believe that John White was captain of 2nd Company "F" from Dallas County. This is not the case. White was a regimental staff officer, appointed Captain and Assistant Quartermaster (A.Q.M.) July 18, 1862, to rank April 27, 1862. Captured at Monterey, Pennsylvania, on July 5, 1863, White spent almost two years in prison. He was exchanged at Cox’s Wharf, Virginia, March 22, 1865, and paroled at Selma, Alabama, May 30, 1865.
