I have record of when and with what army Peter Himebaugh was recruited. Below; Thanks for visiting the Orphan Brigade Homepage and signing our guestbook. Co. E of the 9th Ky. Inf. was recruited in Lincoln Co., TN, and was mustered at Decatur, AL, in March 1862, and assigned to the 9th Ky. Inf. (which was at that time known as the 5th Ky. Inf.). The men of the company always wanted to be in a Tenn. regiment, so this company was transferred in December 1862 to Newman's 23rd Tennessee Battalion. (Co. F had a similar history, being recruited in Savannah, TN, and also transferred with Co. E.) While serving in the 5th/9th Ky. Inf., they fought at Shiloh, the defense of Vicksburg in 1862, and Baton Rouge. I do not have the subsequent history of these Tennessee companies after they transferred out of the Orphan Brigade. The Captains of Co. E as shown in the KY records were John R. Bright (wounded at Shiloh), and W. P. Simpson (elected 14 May 1862). Peter Hinebaugh [sic] is listed as a Pvt. in Co. E, enlisted 10 March 1862 in Lincoln Co., TN. (Source: "Report of the Adjutant General of the State of Kentucky, Confederate Kentucky Volunteers, War 1861-65" (Frankfort, 2 vols., 1915, 1918), Vol. 1, pp. 434-439) Family letters and records recall his return home after being gone two years. He had been wounded in Alabama and taken prisoner by Union Troops and to a hospital in Atlanta GA where his arm was amputated because of infection. Released at war's end as a POW on parole because he refused repatriation. Her returned to teaching school in Bellville, Lincoln Co, TN. After his 1st wife died, he remarried and later moved to Bedford TX to establish a school there. He taught but one year and died 1884 of an infection of the blood and is buried in a Church of Christ Cemetery in Bedford TX. His company of Lincoln Co Vets were known as the Old Man's Company and included several adjoining counties. His 2nd wife, Virginia Higgins Himebauch applied for widows of Tennessee Confederate Veterans pension. I have all applications and court records from Tn State Library. His Company was transferred to Newman's 23rd Tennessee Battalion before end of war. How could I find more of where and when he fought and with what army?
Did you need these people looked up in the Confederate Veteran Magazine? There is a site where you can look for them on the online index. If you find them in the index, copy down the volume & page and I will look for the article at the library. There could be dozens of each surname. >From: [email protected] >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: [LCT] Veterans of LCT lookup >Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2006 11:27:10 EDT > >hi, >any Patterson, Griffin , Hopkins , or Moss ? >thank you. > > >==== TNLINCOL Mailing List ==== >Please support the LCT Genealogical Society :-) > >============================== >Search Family and Local Histories for stories about your family and the >areas they lived.

hi, any Patterson, Griffin , Hopkins , or Moss ? thank you.
Hello Group, I have been watching you all talk about the Vetrans and some being listed. Could and would any of you having any of the books or The Confederates Magazines please look and see if there by chance is a "DANIEL or DAVID BOREN/BOWEN/BOIN (spelled many ways) Could you see if he is listed please. He was born aroun 1815 and lived in Lincoln co TN and then also in Franklin Co TN, Thank you all for any help you may give me. Brenda Mason Campos In Colorado
Thanks. This helps a lot. So the deceased could have been writtten on the application at any time after the 1899 date of application. If he was receiving a pension, this would have closed his file. They just didn't date the file when closed. OBR Swaner was estranged from his family and last wife may have separated or divorced him by 1899. He stated that one of his sons was deceased and the others had families to care for. This was to verify he was indigent, I guess, and not supported by any family. His last wife lived to 1923. Yes, TX does have great records. My mother's grandfather received a pension til 1916 and there are records of correspondance between the board & my grandfather requesting monies to bury Noah and a CSA stone. WAs hoping the Confederate Verteran woudl have enough info as to where OBR is buried so I could have a stone erected for him. family says he was buried in Elkmont Springs. Any ideas where a cemetery would be there? >From: <[email protected]> >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: [LCT] Confederate Veterans of Lincoln County >Date: Tue, 22 Aug 2006 22:17:02 -0400 > >In response to the question about the "deceased" on the pension >application, let me offer a few suggestions.

In response to the question about the "deceased" on the pension application, let me offer a few suggestions. I have copies numerous Tennessee pension applications over the years and have found the following: After the pension was granted there was a periodic review on some of the applications. The "deceased" may have been a response from a family member or possibly even the post office on the review request. Some of the death notices came from the United Confederate Veterans bivouacs. These are often found in the Confederate Veteran magazine. Sometimes the info came from county officials. Several of the ones I have read offer no additional information. Thew Texas records are the best, quite often with death date and burial place and family information. Tennessee records offer little unless the widow also applied for a pension. Would enjoy hearing from descendants of the First Tennessee Regiment members. I have most of the Lincoln County information but occasionally someone! died out of state and no Tennessee record exists.

Melissa, Can you locate any information on William (H) McKinney, who married Elizabeth Pigg Wakefield, 1840 in Lincoln Co., TN? I have a copy of the marriage record. They are on the 1850 and 1860 LCT census. Elizabeth, as head of household, is on the 1870 census for Hill Co., TX, with two daughters, Eliza and Bettie. From an article in the "Confederate Veteran", I learned that William died in the summer of 1867. I don't know what year Elizabeth and the children moved to TX or if William made the move also. I would rather think he died in TN, but have found no proof. Some in the family, including my mother, thought the family lived in MS for a while. I know my grandad, John (J J) McKinney, and his older brother, William Henry McKinney, served with a unit from Tippah Co., MS, for the Confederacy. However, they joined in March or April, 1863 in west TN. William was shot and thrown into prison in Memphis, TN, and was living in TN at that time. So William could have died in MS, TN, or TX! Elizabeth died sometime before 1885. The man that wrote the article for the "Confederate Veteran" was a brother-in-law of my grandad. He married John and William's sister. The family story is that they brought him home with them to meet her when the war was over. This makes me think they were in MS at the time, since he also lived in MS, but they could have still been in TN. He was Albert (A.H.) McAllister. The McAllister Cemetery is in Union Co., MS. A H and Mary Josephine (Josie) lived in Tippah Co., MS where he was a Dentist in Blue Mountain. Thank you. Dortha McElroy Greenlee

The dress looks as if it is from the late 1930's or early 1940's. There are 3 children ranging in age from about 8 t one year. The names above each one reads Nolie(female about 8), Edward(in a striped sailorsuit), and Thelma (barely a year old). The picture was taken at Greenwood & Bell studio in McKinney, TX. The children all have light hair and very light eyes. The picture came in a paket of pictures given to me in 2000. They are somehow related to the James Columbus Swaner family and related families of Smith, Story, Arnold. _________________________________________________________________ Search from any web page with powerful protection.

Donna I noticed the name John WEAVER mentioned below . . . can you tell me about your John WEAVER, his parents, etc. I am "missing" a sister to one of my CAMPBELL ancestors who married a John WEAVER . . . I am always on the lookout for them on the premise that finding them might help me extend my research on my CAMPBELL's. Change of subject - my local library has the Confederate Veteran magazines - I have not found them useful because they lack an index - does anyone know if an index to the old issues has been made and if so, where it can be found? Thanks, Melissa Birmingham, Alabama ______________________________ X-Message: #1 Date: Mon, 21 Aug 2006 11:57:12 -0500 From: "Donna Hanlon" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [LCT] Confederate Veterans Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed This is really fantastic.. I had no idea where the info came from and would be most interested in the articles. I had at least 4 ancestors enlist from LCT. OBR Swaner, John W Carpenter, Jackson O Mitchell, and John Weaver. Would there be any in the TN Library & Archives? If they were on microfilm, maybe we could get them on loan to a major library closer to us.
I am working on who are the parents of John Guthrie and his wife Jane. According to John's will he wanted to be buried at Stephen M Dance's place. We don't know that it happened, there is no marker with his name on it. I don't know that the Dance & Guthrie families intermarried, I haven't run on to any records to indicate that, but I have been wondering if they knew each other previous to coming to TN. According to Goodspeed's history of Moore county, " John Guthrie with his family settled near the site of Dance & Waggoner's mill in 1820, and lived there until his death." Does anyone know where this might have been [in relation to a modern map, please ;-)]? Also I have found a marriage record for Steven Dance and Sarah Smith 27 Dec 1813, Granville co NC. Since John Guthrie's several oldest children were born in NC as was his daughter in law Nancy [married to James C Guthrie] I have thought perhaps the Guthries also came from Granville, tho no luck finding proof yet. Any one with more information, it would be greatly appreciated. Mary
The Confederate Veteran magazine is still alive and well. It is published 6 times a year for Sons of Confederate Veterans and is domiciled in Columbia, Tennessee. Articles are educational and informative. Mailing address: Sons of Confederate Veterans P. O. Box 59 Columbia, TN 38402-0059
I thought I saw something that mentioned current issues of 6 per year. Not expensive at all. Thanks for the address.
