Hello all, I have enjoyed this site quietly for some time now, however, I thought it best to put this bit of oral history out there and see what comes back. Several members of my "related clans" lived and fought in Reynolds County during the civil war. Henderson and Jonathan Chitwood, John Rayfield, John Jordan, Thomas Scaggs, Lucien Farris, and Jacob Brooks are just a few. I grew up hunting in the Clearwater Lake area with family members who traced back to these men. Long story, short version. I was shown many times an unmarked grave site with three graves and told that the graves contained the remains of three Union men who were killed during Prices raid. I was further told that the men were going from Patterson or Greenville to Ironton. Does anyone know if these graves have since been marked? And has anyone any knowledge of the unit to which they might have belonged. The graves are on top of a hill that is between Cave Springs Hollow and Scaggs Hollow in the Clearwater lake area.
