John M McGinnis - Sergeant Major |
In a letter dated June 15, 1863 to Maj. General H. W. Halleck, it is reported that Dawson's units of the 15th Tennessee Cavalry, in the Western Tennessee area, were finally broke up by the Federals.
So, on Jul. 18, 1863 -- John went into another Tennessee Cavalry unit (9th TN Cavalry, Co. G) under General Nathan Bedford Forrest.
John was later placed into the 9th (later known as the 19th) Tennessee Cavalry Regiment, Company K., still as a 5th Sergeant under Captain R.M. Sharp
The 9th (19th) Tennessee Cavalry regiment was placed under Colonel J.B. Biffle who was attached directly to General Forrest’s staff.

George F Sharp - Private |
My GGGGrandfather served in Biffle's unit and was KIA sometime (guessing) in later part of 1864 or early 1865 in Columbia, Hampshire area. Would like to find any photos of him that might exist during this time. None have survived that the family are aware. Believe F. stands for Fount or Fountain as one of his sons was named Fountain. My GGGrandfather Thomas J Edwards(10th Cav Company H, CSA also) married his daughter Nancy Sharp after the Civil war. Would like to find photos of him as well
