William was recorded on Company K’s muster roll dated June 30, 1864, as absent, at home on furlough since June 25, 1864. Subsequently, a Federal Prisoner of War Roll reveals he was captured near Triana, Ala. September 9, 1864.

The record of events for Company K show their location at the June 30, 1864 muster as “near” Marietta, Ga.,

Believe they were operating thereafter from the Atlanta area on a raid through North Ga., East and Middle,Tennessee up to the time of his capture.

I thus, believe he was at home on furlough when apprehended by the Feds.

He may have been a sick or wounded furlough. Unfortunately, we do not know.
