I would like to call your attention to my great grandfather, Wiley W. Charles. Mr. Charles is buried in the Rogersville Methodist Cemetery beside his wife Sarah Jane Francisco Charles. Mr. Charles was a member of Co. A 12 Battalion Tennessee Calvary. He and his brother John Ben Charles entered the Confederate service on the same date. John Ben was 15. Their father John Pitzer Charles was a member of Miller's Company, Local Defense Troops. John P. Charles is buried in the Charles cemetery at Honeycutt. Sarah Jane (Sallie) Francisco Charles' brother, Daniel B. Francisco was a member of the 12 Tennessee Cavalry. Daniel died December 21, 1864 in the Union Prison Camp at Camp Chase Ohio. He is buried in the cemetery at Camp Chase. Wiley's grandfather, Benjamin L. Bussell was in the war of 1812 and his great grandfather, William Bussell was in the Revolutionary War. Many of Mr. Charles's descendents have served in WW 1, WW 2, Korea and Viet Nan. Go by the Methodist Cemetery and say hello to Mr. Charles and his family.
