February 11, 2000 Dear James: First of all, I don't recognize the numbers or their significance. Maybe some of the site users can tell us what they mean. Secondly, I only have the Compiled Service Record roster for SC troops and none for NC. But it was common for individuals living close to the NC border or having kin in NC to join a NC unit. Thirdly, it is entirely possible that a SC soldier served the CSA but his record was destroyed before being gathered up by the Federals whom composed the CSR. Finally, I do not have an Edmond Spivey or Spivy, but I do have a Ephraim Spivey that most likely was from Horry or Marion County that served with the 26th SC Vol Inf Regt., Co. E. Also, a H.E.(E=Edmond?) Spivey that served in the 7th and 15th Inf, R.W. Spivey 10th Inf and W.A. Spivey Manigault's Arty Batt.. All of these units had Horry and Marion County men serving so maybe they were brothers or cousins. Ephraim Spivey was killed in action probably while serving in and near Petersburg, VA in 1864. If this sounds familiar, I'd recommend that you write the SC Dept of Archives in Columbia to get his CSR to find out more and if it is your man, then let me know and I'll photocopy his CSR for you from my microfilm for $5.00 to help defer my costs and this includes postage or you can write to the national Archives in Washington to get his CSR. They are online and you will need to use FORM NATF 80. AS this man was a member of the 26th and if he is kin, which I am building a website to honor that unit, I would appreciate hearing from you about any family stories, letters, etc., which I will use to personalize the website and help "breath life" into the material. Good hunting and let me know if I may be of further service in helping to perpetuate the member of the galliant Confederate soldiers---Julian james gore wrote: > Thanks for the offer to do a look up.
