Lisa. Company "D" of the 19th did not fight at Shiloh as that regiment was not officially organized until October 3, 1862. Company D, men from Lawerence County, under Capt. Lewis M. Kirk was organized on August 31, 1862. Biffle was probably at Shiloh, as he was associated with two other units before the 19th.

Richard, The "Hardin County Yankee Hunters" were composed of men from Hardin Co., TN. There was probably one or two from Wayne and perhaps the same from McNairy Co, these counties lying on either side of Hardin. According to the oldest history of the county, Soon after the vote for or against secession, the county militia, including all able bodied men, was ordered to meet regularly at the muster grounds at Old Town, former County Seat, on the east side of the Tennessee River and at the Perkins place on the west side of the River. In the summer of 1861, a great rally and barbecue was held at Shady Grove Church near Saltillo TN. Many men committed themselves to the Confederate cause on that day. From "Goodspeed's History of Hardin County." "The first company of troops raised was at Shady Grove Church, near Saltillo, where a great barbecue and war meeting was held. War speeches were made and volunteers were called for, yet not in vain. A full company of cavalry was soon raised in which C. S. (Charles Sevier) Robertson was captain, J. W. Irwin first lieutenant; Arthur Hardin second lieutenant, and R. W. Reynolds 3rd lieutenant." Apparently, these men went into Confederate service on 21 October 1861. Several men of "G" Company gave this as the date they enlisted, one said at Jackson Tennessee. On the 10th of January of 1862, the unit was stationed at Henderson Station, now Chester, then Madison Co., TN. On that date Capt. Robertson wrote a letter to Maj. Gen. Polk at Columbus MS inquiring as to what unit they would be attached. If it was to be an infantry unit, his preference was the 52nd Inf. Reg. under Col. Benjamin Lea. Lea was also stationed at Henderson Station. Capt. Robertson sent his letter to Polk with Lt. J. W. Irwin. Robertson explains that since the unit was formed, with 131 men, they had been scouting in Madison, Henderson and McNairy Counties and made several arrests. On the 15th of April, 1862, Robertson is still trying to get attached to a Cavalry Unit. His preference is that of Col. Jake Biffle and the 19th (Biffle's) Tennessee Cavalry Regiment. But, that didn't work. As it turns out, he had already been assigned to the First Confederate Cavalry under Col. Henry Clay King of KY, this being done about the 1st of April 1862. The original officers were: Col.'s Thomas Claiborne, John T. Lay, H. Clay King, and John T. Cox. I believe the First Confederate remained in north Mississippi and West Tennessee until the Kentucky Campaign with Gen. Joe Wheeler.

Hello Everyone Looking for any information on Martin Hagy b. 9 Jun 1812 VA, m. abt 1836, in TN to Celia Riddle. Looking for their marriage date and any family that might be still living in Hardin Co. TN. I would like to find Martin Hagy's parents and siblings. In the 1840 census Martin had two son under age of 5 and one daughter. When I found him in the 1850 census in Stoddard Co., MO he only had one son (John) and one daughter (Malinda) born in TN. Is it possible that there might be a grave for ?????? Hagy son of M & S (he called his wife Selia) in Hardin Co, TN? The story that I have been told is several families came from North Carolina to Hardin Co., TN then between 1841 and 1849 they move on to Stoddard Co., MO. Is anyone missing a Hagy brother from their family tree??? I have not had any luck on finding Martin's parents or siblings. Any lead would really be a god send. Thanks and happy hunting to all! Have a Great Day! :-) Mona Mona (Annette) Hagy-Rose rcs@texas.net

Millard was the son of John Quincy Smith and Jeannie Elizabeth (Lizzie) Austin, who was daughter of John Bally "Baldy" Austin and Isabell Virginia Qualls. John Austin married second to Jane Lamb. I have very little on this Smith family, and nothing ofher than Hassels' name for him. Hassel had a sister Fanny Kate and a sister Joyce. Joyce married someone with the last name WHITE, and that is one of my lines also. I need help on WHITE families in Hardin Co., TN to get them separated. Fanny Kate married Eldridge Allen (Junior) Austin son of Eldridge Allen (Shorty) Austin and Emily Patterson. Shorty was the son of Marvin Wesley Austin and Lillie Phoebe Lard. Lillie was the daughter of James Alfred Lard and Judy (Judia) Carolyn Austin. James was the son of Richard Lard and Elizabeth Cockran. I have sooooo many Austin, Qualls, and Lamb lines in my ancestors lines that it's not a Tree, but a Wreath. I keep going in circles with these lines. I am also descended from Richard Lard through his daughter Cynthia Rebecca who married Augustus G. Austin. I would love to share all I have and get any lines updated. If you have anything to add, please send it my way. Debbie Cossey Wasserburger P.S. could you send me any info where to find the links?

I am looking for information on Mary Christian Harlan who died near Boyds Landing , Hardin Co., in May/June 1862. I know she was at the home of J.W.. Morrow before burial and then buried somewhere close (possibly a family plot area). In the 1860 census, she and her husband were listed in Hardin Co. with 3 children, Felix, Sarah and Dalton. I'm curious about Mary and what happened to the children. C.C. Harlan later married Viola Valentine of MS, but there is no mention of Felix, Dalton or Sarah. If anybody could shed some light, I'd appreciate it. In the 1860 TN Census, page 131 Line 3, of Hardin Co. there is this listing: C.C. Harlan 31 m Farmer b.TN Mary 29 f " Dalton 8 m MS Felix G. 4 m TN Sarah E 6/12 f " Who are these children? I guess I need to get my hands on the 1870 census. But I do not see mention of them in later papers. Any clues? ----Sandy

Debbie, I found John everywhere I looked. He is listed twice in "Tennesseans in the Civil War." He joined Company F, 10th Tennessee Volunteer Infantry Regiment, U.S., which was enrolled at Savannah on June 5, 1862, by Capt.'s James C. Green and Robert H. Clinton. John was mustered out at Greeneville or Knoxville in May or June 1865. Apparently, John then joined Company E of the 8th Tennessee Mounted Infantry Regiment which was enrolled at Clifton by Capt Charles W. Shipman with men form Hardin and Wayne Co.'s. The Company was mustered in at Nashville on May 27, 1865 and mustered out in Nashville on or before September 1, 1865. The 8th was initially stationed at Clifton then moved to Savannah. This outfit almost missed the war? Luke Cossey was a Pvt., also in the 8th MI while John was listed as a Cpl. in the 8th and a Pvt. in the 10th Inf. U.S. Tony Hays in "No Man's Land" shows John H. Cossey in the 10th Inf, U.S. In the same book, I note also, that Luke and Tom Cossey are mentioned in connection with the Bert Hays tale in "Bugger Saga". The only problem with that story is that Bugger Saga has Bert killing his own people. Not likely. There was a John Cossey in Co. L, 1st Heavy Art. CSA. It appears possible that John could have been a Rebel before he was a Yankee. This was not unusual.

The National Park Service is also imputting and is almost complete in computerizing a list of "Civil War" soldiers. The information should be available at a national park. Several years ago when visiting Shiloh Battlefield there was a computer available to look up soldiers. This was long before much data was imputed. I know for a fact the the United Daughters of the Confederacy volunteered to imput most of the data for the Southern States and then began helping with the northern states. The last report we got was they were almost complete. This might be a way of finding the soldier and the unit he is in then one can look for the history of the unit to see if it was from Hardin county. Sharon M.

My great-great-grandfather John H. G. Cossey was a Corporal Co. E. 8th Regiment Tennessee Mounted Infantry and his wife Luvicy (Auistin) Cossey was entitled to a pension at the rate of $12 dollars per month, to commence September 26, 1912. I have the original certificate, but I have never seen his name in any book or on any rosters. Johns father Hubbard Cossey is mentioned, with Stephen Austin and Richard Lard (all my ancestors) in an article by Tony Hays about the Bert Hayes Gang, but I have looked throgh the book "No Man's Land" and saw no mention of John. Maybe there's records out there no one has found yet? Debbie Cossey Wasserburger Huntsville, AL
