Joseph Colonel Cunningham - Private
|
Joseph Cunningham is my Great great grand father. He had served with General Price. Enlisted on March 6th 1862, Same day Sterling Price was commissioned Maj Gen in the Confederate Army. I am awaiting his muster roll from the Missouri State Archives. He was Paroled from the hospital in Meridian Mississippi at the close of the war. He was hospitalized in July 1864 and remained there till after the war ended. He had contacted Chronic Erysifrelas in his left leg which crippled him in his left hip and knee for life. I am trying to find any picture of his unit that may be in existance. I have seen family pictures of him but cannot locate them now. He had returned to Coffee County Tennessee, where he was born, after the war.Where he passed away in 1917. He had went to Missouri in 1857 to purchase and home stead land. Where I am sure he was forced to defend his home as many of the Missourians were then, and wound up with General Price fighting with the Missouri Gaurd. Upon his enlistment to the Confederate Army he was assigned to the 4th Missouri infantry, Co, B. Under Colonel McFarland, general Price's command. Captain Howards company. When he was hospitalized Captain Nicks (or) Hicks was in command. Any picture of these brave men would be greatly appreciated.
