I; Feagan/Colquitt's 1st AR REG. After being attached to the Army of TN they were engaged in so many battles. One of the Reap brothers, Samuel H. was killed at Franklin, TN and is buried in the McGavock Confederate Cemetery there. William Jonas, his brother, survived and continued with the very depleted 1st AR till they surrendered. Their Cousin Samuel Bruce Gibson was also in this company and was shot in the knee at Chickamauga. He was then sent to SC after being in the hospital for quite some time. He was a train guard at Atlanta, not being able to be in the battles. Samuel Bruce Gibson and William Jonas Reap are buried in Union Cemetery Rye, AR. We are in close contact with the UDC & Carter House in Franklin, TN . Samuel Bruce Gibson is my GGrandfather. Anyone interested in this 1st AR should read With Honor Untarnished. Bettye
