 CW,

Thanks!!

I couldn't find a pension application for Tennessee....He was recruited in Memphis, for Bankhead's Battery, in early 1861. When Bankhead got promoted and went to Texas, the battery was commanded by Capt. William Scott, so it became Scott's Battery. A good portion of the men that enlisted came from Arkansas, some from Mississippi and some from Tennessee; so, he could have lived anywhere......His Serrvice Record does not indicate where he lived prior to the war.

Thanks again!
