I recently learned more information about my gggrandfather, John Frank Markham of Lee County VA, son of Josiah Markham. John ended up living in Knoxville TN, where he died in 1921. I have copies of his Soldier's Application for Pension to the State of Tennessee, dated March 1906. Here are the details, briefly: Joined Company I, 27th Regiment, VA Calvary, C.S.A. in 1862. Served under Col. James, Capt. Bishop, Lt. Bales. Not wounded in any battles, but apparently went deaf in one ear. Surrendered/captured at Cumberland Gap, Kentucky (or TN?) in March 1865. Paroled in April 1865. Affidavits are signed by Rose Hill, VA residents W.L. Eldridge and D.L. Hobbs who also served with him. At the time of application, his wife and 3 daughters (who provided support) lived with him at 650 Asylum Drive in Knoxville, TN. Hurrah!
