If anyone can help me find out more about these people, I would really appreciate it!!!
I am most interested in finding out information concerning Thomas WILLIAMS and Mary
TEWELL, George Richard WILLIAMS and Katie ESSEX, as well as Roy Thomas WILLIAMS.
I have come across information concerning a Thomas WILLIAMS living in Loogootee, IN that
enlisted on August 14, 1862 and served in the Civil War as a Musician until he mustered
out at Salisbury, NC on 6-22-1865. I don't know if this is MY Thomas and would like
to find out if he is.
Again, I would appreciate anyone's help and I'm willing to share whatever info I
have in return. Please feel free to email me at rabesr(a)aol.com if you can help.
Thanks!!!
