Re: Texas 32nd Flag Ector's Brigade
George Washington Warthan
GW mustered into the CSA Jan 1862 in Bowie County as part of the 1st Texas Cavalry
In May 1862 Co. E of the 32nd was formed and GW was incorporated into the 32nd.
He resided in Red River county prior to his service.
GW came to Texas from Tuscaloosa, Al. in 1851 at 17 yrs of age.(b. Mar 1834)
His father Sylvester is thought to have migrated form Virginia via Georgia.
There seems to be a Willaim Warthan either a brother or cousin that also mustered into the 27th Texa Cavalry.
Have a lot more on GW , genealogy if you wish and the 32nd history
