Re: Conferate Veteran mag query 1917

There is some indication he died in 1863, however, I cannot confirm it.

Mrs. E. C. Ball of Paris Texas writes her brother Calvin W Seale enlisted at Booneville, Brazos Co., Texas 1862 in the 15th Texas Infantry as a Private. She does not know what became of him. Wants to have his grave marked by the Memorial Commission
[Confederate Veteran Magazine, Vol. 25, October, 1917, p. 483]

C. W. Seale, 31, Private, Capt. G. B. Erath’s Company, Speight’s Regiment Texas Infantry,*
Joined for duty and enrolled May 13, 1862 at Boonville by Lt. Reid for the War, traveled 20
miles to rendezvous
Recorded at the Sep/Oct, 1862 muster as present, sick in quarters
Present at the Mar/Apr, 1863 muster
Recorded at the MayJun, 1863 muster as sick at Camp Kimmishi, C. N.
No further records

* This company subsequently became Company I, 15th Regiment, Texas Infantry,

Company I, Record of Events

March/April, 1863 en-route to Kiamishy at the mouth of Kimaishi Creek having left Fort Smith, Ark. April 21
May/Jun, 1863 arrived at Kiamishi May 5 continuing on toward Shreveport, La. arriving May 16
Jul/Aug, 1863 muster roll missing
Sep/Oct, 1863 -do-
Nov/Dec, 1863 Stationed in camp near Monroe, La. no record of Pvt. Seale

Note, with no further record we can assume he was dropped from the rolls for some unknown reason during the period July - August, 1863. This could have been for discharge, transfer, desertion, death, etc.
