Re: CSA Polish Soldiers from Mississippi

Wreshinsky Louis | 26 M | Merchant Prusia

The source you are using contains a transcription error, the original census has Louis Kottwitz living in the Wreshinsky household.

Ancestry.com is also in error with listing this last name as Rottwitz. The census taker's K's appear to be R's, I compared this spelling to the King family and to Kentucky Muse, 12 year old daughter of Dr. S.D. & Mary A. Muse, living in Lawrence County in 1860.

Dr. Muse (Dentist) is living in the next household to E.J. Goode (listed as E.J. Goade in the source you are using).
Apparently Dr. Muse thought well of his neighbor who served as the first Captain of Company G and later Colonel of the 7th. Regiment that he named one of his sons Edmond J. Goode Muse.

Young Edmond J.G. Muse, age 2, and older brother Nathan B. Whitehead Muse, age 5, died five days apart in November, 1863 and share a headstone in the Masonic Cemetery, Monticello, Lawrence County, Mississippi.
