Davis, William T. - enlisted as a Private on July 13, 1861. Discharged at Lynchburg, Virginia on February 9, 1862.
Additional Information from Thomas J. Freeman:
He then joined Co. A., 2nd Battalion of Hilliard's Legion of Alabama Volunteers (Confederate) on April 5, 1862 in Randolph County, Alabama. He was on the June 1, 1862 and June-September, 1862 company rolls. The June 1-August 31, 1863 roll indicated he left the company on May 1, 1863 and was sick at Knoxville. The October 31-December 31, 1863 company roll indicated he was absent without leave since December 4, 1863. A record of the Company Muster Roll of Company F, 59th Alabama Infantry for January -February 1864 also listed W.T. Davis as being "absent without leave and ill, Dec 4, 1863". Another record on the Company Muster Roll for January-February 1864 says he was "Absent" and the remarks on that card say "with unit captured Dec 4, 63, Knoxville" . The Bonner Bible indicates he was lost in the Civil War. I did not find any record of his having died in a Union hospital or prison camp during the war. We also have found no record of him after the war.
� The muster roll of Co. B, 59th Infantry for January-February 1864 confirms that the company moved from Missionary Ridge on November 21, 1863 to London and thence to arrive in front of Knoxville on November 27th and aided in the investment of that city until on the night of December 4th it became necessary to leave.
Service record gleaned from the Compiled Service Records of Confederate Soldiers Who Served in Organizations from the State of Alabama and other sources.
The Bonner Bible is pages copied by Mary Frances Bonner Brown from a bible in the home of Mary Elizabeth Davis Bonner with some entries made after 1942 by Mary Frances Bonner Brown of Los Angeles, California.
