Charles Frederick, Jr. Kobs - Private
|
Frederick 'Fritz' Kobs, Jr. enlisted in Waul's Texas Legion with Capt. Wrigley's Co on June 2, 1862 and had his furlough extended for three days. Was conscripted while on furlough, prevented from reporting to Camp Waul near Brenham, TX and sent to the Sappers and Miners. It is thought that he was never sent far from home as he had children during the war. He was probably involved with the construction and improvement of the fortifications of the SE Texas Coast. He signed his 'parole of honor' as a POW in Houston, TX on June 27, 1865. He is buried near his homestead in the Addicks-Bear Creek Methodist Cem. at Patterson Rd. and Hwy 6 N in West Houston.
