From Hardesty's Biographical Atlas, Mason County, West Virgina, Published 1882:
Mr. Rayburn has a war record of interest for services in the 1861 war. He enlisted August 2, 1862, in Company B, 13th West Virginia Regiment, and was made corporal September 1, following. He took part in the battles of Hurricane Bridge, Mud River, Shenandoah, Winchester, Strasburg, Fishers Hill, and Cedar Creek. He was also on the Lynchburg raid, which was steady fighting from Charlestown, West Virginia, to Lynchburg. Mr. Rayburn was wounded in the head at Hurricane Bridge, and taken prisoner at the battle of Cedar Creek, October 19, 1864, and sent to Libby prison. He was paroled February 22, 1865, but the sufferings he had undergone in prison had shattered his health, so that he was never fitted for duty during the remainder of his term of service. James A. Rayburn is by trade a blacksmith, and pursues this avocation in Robinson district. His postoffice address is Clifton, Mason county, West Virginia.
