Does anyone here recognize this man? The record shows that W. L. Sisson was private in Company A, Ist Battalion Texas Sharpshooter's. On the roll of the company for the months of September and October, 1863, he is reported absent, left sick at hospital, Marksville, Louisiana, since February 20, 1863. No later record found. If this is your direct descendant, let me know. Thanks, Kathleen I'm a card-carrying member of the ACLU and encourage you to join! Get informed, become a member and get active.
