Re: Caldwell County
In Response To: Caldwell County ()

I am trying to find information about the Caldwell County company raised by John S. Ford at the end of 1863. I believe my ancestor, Elihu Littleberry Kirksey, was in this company, which apparently mainly consisted of old men, draft exemptions, and boys (my ancestor turned 17 in Dec. 1863). My ancestor was in Cox's Co., and served under Santos Benavides and Ford.

I think the answer may be in the Haley Library in Midland.

See the link to my post under Cox's Co., Benavides Regt., Ford's Brigade.
