William was about 43 years old when enlisted in Co I 9th Miss Cavalry.. He has two cards in his archival file. The cover card and the surrender card. No date of enlistment. His unit surrendered at Citronelle, Ala. and was pardoned at Meridian, Lauderdale Co. Miss. He served in S.W. Fergerson's Brigade , Iverson's Division, under General Wheeler's command. His regimental history has him engaged at Kenesaw Mountain, Atlanta Campaign. Some of the 9th was part of the escort for President Jefferson Davis on his attempt to escape in Georgia. He married twice and moved to Louisiana. He died 20 Dec 1886 and is buried at Central Cem. Robeline, Natchitoches Parish, La.

I believe he was a courier. He was from Alabama originally and possibly his original unit was merged with the 9th later in the war. His brother in law, John Ellenburg could possibly have been with him. He was a witness for his pension.
