No family notes have been added.

John Edmonds joined with Mosby early in the formation of the Rangers while too young to serve in the regular army. He was severely wounded during an engagement with the 2nd Massachusetts Cavalry, near Dranesville, February 22nd, 1864. The Yankees were piloted by Charles Binns, a deserter from Mosby's command. After the war, John moved to Sherman, Texas, and later to Waco, Texas, where he was on the faculty at Baylor University. In 1876, he became the Commandant of the Cadet Corps at Texas A&M in College Station, Texas. He was a Colonel of the US Army at San Juan Hill and was killed in a duel in 1907.

Willie was the man who, while on his way home in 1865, put John Wilkes Booth in Garrett's barn. He had previously served and been grievously wounded in the 9th Virginia Cavalry.

George Albert 'Bully' Rowzee is my 1st cousin 3 generations removed.He and his brother Edwin fought with Mosby's Rangers. George died at the age of 77 on January 27, 1917 in Washington, DC.

Edwin Rowzee is my first cousin 3 generations removed. Both he and his brother, George, served with Mosby's Rangers. Edwin was captured April 28, 1864 at Leesburg. He was sent to Old Capitol Prison, Washington, DC May 03, 1864. On September 20, 1864 he was transferred to Fort Warren Prison, Boston and released June 12, 1865. He died March 30, 1874 at approx. age 36 at Dranesville, VA. I often wonder if his death from pneumonia at such an early age was a result of a no doubt hard winter spent in a federal prison on an island in Boston harbor.
