Franklin Augustus Clifford, the 4th of 12 children of James Grey and Rebecca {Coker} Clifford, was born August 5, 1845 in Mocksville Township in Davie County, North Carolina. His wife, Louise Ellen, the 3rd of 7 children of Richard Owen and Grace (Eaton) Wiseman, was born also in Mocksville Township on August 25, 1846. As Civil War began, Franklin entered his service and was enlisted with Company F of the 42nd Regiment at Salisbury, North Carolina on May 1862. At the time of enlistment, his serviced papers revealed his physical characteristices, having blond complexion, red hair, blue eyes and height of 5 feet and 6 and ¾ inches. On March 10, 1865, during a battle he was captured near Kingston, North Carolina and arrived with his fellow prisoners at New Bern, North Carolina on March 16th. He was later transferred to Point Lookout Prison Camp for the Confederates in Maryland but was finally released on June 24th shortly after the end of the war. A few months after his return from the Civil War, he married Louisa at the home of her parents in Davie County, on February 22, 1866. (Michael Clifford and His Family, Frank Powers 10 September 1993)
