| Notes |
- Jesse R., like many in the area, had a complicated Civil War service history. He first served in:
Co A, 16th Tenn Inf, CSA
He was discharged as over age, but after his brother died with the 16th at Perryville he re-enlisted in:
Co E, 84th Tenn Inf, CSA
Which was consolidated into:
Co I, 28th Cons Tenn Inf, CSA
After his nephew was killed by Confederate guerrillas he deserted his unit, came home and joined the Federals:
Co F, 4th Tenn Mtd Inf, USA
On 1 April 1865 he was kicked in the knee by a horse while serving as acting Forage Master for the 4th Tenn Mtd Inf. He limped for the rest of his life and eventually received a disability pension from the U.S. Government.
Jesse R. joined Liberty Lodge 77, F.A.& M. on 1 Dec 1867 and remained a member until a couple of years before his death. [4]
