• Notes

  Too old to enlist in service, but went to the Confederate camps near his home to give medical aid. He went to Maryland to nurse his son, a soldier who had measles but found he had been buried the day before his arrival. He stayed three months in the camp through severest winter weather to help during the epidemic. Not feeling well, he left to go home quickly, but had contracted measles and died from pneumonia that resulted from the exposure.
