Neither your Leander nor John Cordiway of Company A, Roberts' 11th Infantry are mentioned in my book. I noticed that your Leander Cordiway mustered in Rusk County. ... According to James E. Williams' great web site -- address below -- most of this Company A mustered in Cherokee County.

I address now 26 counties of North Texas that includes 240 militia listings. ... True, some militiamen in these listings were from South of the counties that I address as illustrated on my web page. Also some militiamen were from out-of-state, esp. in the 1863-1864 militias.
