James Franklin Gennoe Hoyle - 1st Lieutenant
|
Known as Franklin Hoil in records. Adopted son of Mexican War veteran Clayton Hoyle also of Meigs County. Franklin served as 1st Lt in Co.A until regiment was captured at Fort Donelson. He was one of the lucky few who escaped with N.B. Forrest but resigned his commission when company was not exchanged promptly. Later he shows up as 1st Sgt in same company at Dalton GA with no further record in 1864. Would like to find how he returned to company as 1st Sgt after 2 years separation in his service record! Recently located gravestone in Weeks Cemetery located in Scott County Arkansas.
