He was from Thomasville, Oregon County, Missouri. He enlisted in 1865 in Rolla, MO. He was on guard duty in KS when the horses he was watching were stampeded by Indians. The horse that he was on fell on top of him and caused him to recieve an injury to his left groin. The injury basically ended his military career and he was discharged in 1866. His brother, James Posey and his father, John R., fought for the Confederacy.
