Hello All, I found the following during a search for something totally unrelated and was wondering who this "John Poythress" might be as I don't recall any Poythresses in Effingham Co. Might it ring any bells for anyone? I was just curious who he was...Maynard or Bud, one of yours? Company I 5th Regiment Georgia Volunteer Cavalry Effingham County, Georgia "Effingham Hussars" Captain Henry J. Strobhar, Commanding John POYTHRESS enlisted in 1st COMPANY B, 25th Regiment, Georgia Infantry on 10 Aug 1862. He was relieved from duty by Conscript Act 16 Aug 1862. He enlisted in Company I, 5th Regiment, Georgia Cavalry on 1 Aug 1863, at Isle of Hope, Georgia. The roll for December, 1864, last on file, lists him as being absent on furlough since 30 Dec 1864. No further record.
