Re: Hamon Bailey Ware, Co C, 19th Ala. Vol.

You may procure his records through the service noted in the Red enclosed box above. In-as-much as there are no company muster rolls which document his presence, we can assume he enlisted sometime after the Company's last surviving muster roll which covered the period Jan & Feb. 1964. His only records are those of Federal POW cards.
