Children: Joseph Queen, William I Queen m. Cecelia Kidwell M 2nd- Priscilla
Miles ª4-17-1828 to 7-16-1896) James M. Queen is stated to have been born in
KY. or Indiana depending on whose account you read. He was born in 1820. He
apparently came to Brown Township, Martin Co, In as a young man and married
at age 19 to Mary Magdalene Strange. They had two children: Joseph born in
1841 and William Ignatius born in May 1845.( this is my great grandfather).
James then married Priscilla Miles and had eight more children. He was in
the Army during the Civil War. He enrolled on the 14th day of August 1862 at
Loogootee in Co "B" 80th Regiment of Indiana Volunteers to service as a

Regiment of Indiana. Volunteers to serve Three years on during the war. On
the Muster Roll of Co. "B" of the Regiment , for the months of Sept. Oct.
Nov, Dec Han , Feb March, Month of March 1863, he is reported Died of
Disease at Danville, KY. Nov 20th 1862. This is from his Pension Record
filed by his wife Priscilla Miles Queen .
The following does not seem to be the father of James because he died before
James was born.
