Re: Guerrillas who survived Bill Anderson's admiss

You will also notice the following information at the site Mr. Longley posted. . . .

"Anderson, William "Bloody Bill" + Anderson Killed 1864
Killed at Orick, MO, 26 Oct 1864.
Reared and educated in Huntsville, Randolph County, MO. Moved to
Council Grove, KS, where his father was killed in the borderwars.
Married Miss Bush Smith of Sherman, TX, probably in Dec 1863. On
26 October 1864, Anderson and his men were isolated in Ray County
MO by General Price's defeat. Camped one mile north of Orrick, MO,
he was located by a Union force commanded by Majors Samuel Cox and
John Grimes with 150 men of the 51st and 33rd Missouri Infantry
from Ray, Daviess and Caldwell Counties. Major Cox buried him in
an unmarked grave in the Richmond, MO, cemetery. The command of
his unit was taken over by David Pool."

Darn pesky details don't support Mr. Longley's assertion that Bloody Bill survived in Texas until 1927.
