Below is a story replayed many times: War
comes, parents die, mother die's young, grandmother takes over primary guardian, in this case, Grandmother die's the children are assigned guardians in different counties in Texas. When we send a parent to War, and something like this happens look at the consequences generations later, lives that could have been much different, however, don't ask the children of their's, has they are here, as I am, because of the events of history, but life's events shape who we are, it is up to each of us to overcome the negatives in these events, it is not pre-ordained that we live in poverty, remain down-and-out, these are events each of us can overcome in a free country, & lead rewarding lives, of happiness & love or contentment...... |

Lewis (White) Bobo (CSA) (Grandson of Robert White Sr) Born: 30 Nov 1824 Cross Keys Union Co SC Died: 1865 (Presumed to have died in the Civil War)
Served as Pvt. 1st in Gould's Battalion Gould’s Battalion (6th Texas Cavalry Battalion) Gould's Battalion was organized in May 1862 at Porter Springs, Houston County, Texas by Robert S. Gould of Leon County. The men in Gould’s Battalion were from Houston, Leon, Madison and Trinity counties. This battalion numbered about 525 men and was first attached to the 13th Texas Cavalry, but became an independent battalion. Afterwards, it was placed in General Horace Randal's, 2nd Brigade, Walker's Division. On November 12, 1864, Major Gould was promoted Lieutenant Colonel and Captain William Viser was promoted to Major. Major Brannan died in October of 1866 from wounds suffered at Battle of Mansfield. and is buried in the Viser Cemetery in Midway, Madison County, Texas. Gould’s battalion participated in the battles of Mansfield and Pleasant Hill, Louisiana Names of the Officers of Gould's Battalion were Colonel Robert S. Gould, Surgeon W.E. Saunders, Quartermaster Henry D. Patrick, Adjutant Thomas Carson Brannan, Captain P.I. Holly of Company A, Captain William W. Veser of Company B, Captain James McClean of Company C, Captain Thomas J. Thorn of Company D and Captain A.G. Rogers of Company E. From the Houston County Courier Vol.2 Number 25, July 24, 1891 Gould's Battalion which meets in Crockett , July 22 and 23 was organized and mustered into the Confederate service in May 1862 at Porter Springs, Houston County, Texas, and consisted of five companies as follows: Company A, Captain Tullis, of Trinity County Company B, Captain Viser, of Madison County Company C, Captain James McLean of Houston County Company D, Captain W. D. Wood of Leon County Company E., Captain J. T. Heflin of Houston County The rank and file numbered about 525 men. R.S. Gould of Leon County was elected Major of the Battalion. This Battalion was first attached to the 13th (Burnett's) Texas Cavalry, but remained with it only a short time when it was withdrawn and became an independent organization. Afterwards, it was placed in Randal's Brigade, Walker's Division, where it remained during the rest of the war. The service of this command was in the Trans-Mississippi Department and extended from the Northern part of Arkansas to Berwick Bay, Louisiana. It was engaged in the following battles, meeting and opposing Banks army in his march from Atchafalaya to Mansfield. The first general battle in which it was engaged was the battle of Mansfield, Louisiana, which was followed closely by the battle of Pleasant Hill where Bank's army was routed and retreated to their transports at Atchafalaya. Walkers's Division, of which this battalion was a part, was then ordered on a forced march to meet Steele's army then advancing on Shreveport from Little Rock, Arkansas. Steele having heard of Bank's defeat began a retreat towards Little Rock and was overtaken by Walker's division at Jenkin's Ferry on Sabine River where they engaged in battle under unfavorable circumstances, resulting in the loss of many men. Steele succeeded in crossing the river with his army in a demoralized condition and continued his retreat to Little Rock. Walker's Division was then ordered back to Alexandria on the Red River after a hard campaign of several weeks' duration marching and fighting, the men being very exhausted. This division was in many small battles including "Nigger Hill," Poison Springs, and others not remembered, and was marched during hard weather to the relief of Arkansas Post, arriving just too late to render assistance. This Battalion suffered untold hardships, living in swamps winter and summer. Their number was greatly depleted by sickness and diseases incident to camp life. At their reunion there will be perhaps not more than one hundred of the original members present. Of the original commissioned officers, only Gould, Viser, Wood, Nixon, and Heflin are living. We understand that this Battalion will probably have their reunion next year in joyous greeting wherever they may meet. We should be delighted to chronicle their harrowing experiences if space permitted. May all our good people join in honoring these old defenders of our liberties! |
