Company I
Jesse M Tate
- Corporal
Jesse Tate is my great-great grandfather, sadly he was a Yankee.(I am sure he did what he thought was right.) He enlisted in Paducah,KY in Jan.1865 at the age of 29 and discharged in Louisville,KY in July 1865. He was thrown from his horse in April 1865. He received a back injury that he never recovered from. He received Pension after applying several times. In his last application dated 1898 'that his occupation was that of a farmer until he became so lame that he could not work and follow a plow. He then worked as a blacksmith and was not able to do but little work and would not try to do any where he not complelled to.' He died in 1904 in Dyer Co.,TN.

Company K
William Dyer
- Private
William enlisted on June 1, 1863 at Saulsbury, Tennessee, at the age of 21 years. He was captured in 1864 ans sent to Andersonville, where he died from starvation and scurvy on August 27, 1864. The archives don't reflect where he was captured, but most of his regiment was captured in N.B. Forrest's attack on Union City, Tennessee in March 1864 (See Dyer's Compendium). The last roll for Co. K in which he is included was for January-February 1864, which supports this presumption. William's uncle was Winship Dyer, who also died at Andersonville.
