William Henry Andrews - 1st Sergeant
|
W H Andrews signed up at St Vincents Island, Florida late 1861 for one year. He was wounded and captured at Murfreesboro Jan 2 and 10th respectfully of 1863. Transferred to Camp Chase, then exchanged in March of 1863. Paroled for 100 days, then went back to unit. Present on rolls available after this, but I'm looking for historical data to confirm WH's transfer to a Georgia unit in late 1864. Cannot confirm this but trail goes cold and no death or burial is to be found.

James E. Railey - Unknown
|
Circumstantial evidence suggests that James was a brother of Wilson Lumpkin Raley, an officer in the unit. WLR's father was Jamesy ('Jimpsey'); there is no other evidence that Jimpsey had a son named after him--which was very common; the 1880 Washington County, FL census has an Elizabeth Raley, living with her brother, Thomas Reddick--a James Raley married an Elizabeth Reddick in Georgia in 1837. Some Family Trees on Ancestry have this James's father as Abner--circumstantial evidence suggests that Abner and Jimpsey were brothers; therefore, if this James E. Railey wasn't WLR's brother, he was most likely his first cousin.

John Jackson Russ - Private
|
John Julius 'Jackson' Russ (1809-1867) was an ordained Methodist Minister and a early pioneer (1830s) to Jackson and Washington Counties of West Florida. John J. Russ was born in Brunswick County, NC. Military records indicate John J. Russ was a Private in the Confederate Army ( Co. H, 4th Florida Infantry, Washington County Invincibles) As an ordained minister John J. Russ probably served as a Chaplain for his unit but I have found no record to date to validate same. John J. Russ had two sons, who also served in the Confederate Army. John Robert Russ, Sgt (1840-1864) was killed in the Battle of Atlanta and another son, James Lemuel Russ, (1839-1917) who survived the war. John J. Russ served as Clerk of Court for Washington Co, Fl before and after the War, he died in office.
