Notes - Served for 17.5 months in Civil War , and survived 5 mo. in Andersonville Prison. Much of the descendants charted were given to me by Kathryn Bates of Bloomington, IL. When he moved to Il. in 1892, they had been living in Cornishville, Mercer Co. S.W. of Lexington, KY James lied about his age to join his older brothers William , Henry, and John. James' mother walked ten miles to Harrodsburg to prevent his enlistment, but was too late.
