Sorry about the pics. I have no idea why they are sideways. I will search for Mississippi. I will email you this evening LaurA
Thank youDaniel Clowers and Jacob Clowers were father and son from Floyd County Virginia. They died at Cassville about a year apart. Widow pension applications indicate both died of chronic diarrhea.
Daniel Clowers Co. I, 54th Va., died Oct. 28, 1862
Daniel was born VA about 1812, married Margaret/Peggy Greff or Gredd 22 Nov 1830 in Montgomery VA.
Jacob Clowers Co. I, 54th Va., died Nov. 16, 1863.
Jacob Clowers, born about 1836 VA to Daniel Clowers and Margaret/Peggy Clowers. Married Nancy Boswell 13 July 1853.
The name appears as Clowers in the military records, but records occasionally appear as Clower, especially later records. The information about the family that I checked lines up with family info here:

There were three other Clowers in the rolls of the 54th Virginia. James T Clowers, 1st Sgt. Co I, William L Clowers, Co A, and William Thomas Clowers, Co C. I think the William's are the same person and Jacob, James, and William were first cousins. The pension application for Jacob's widow indicated that William L or T Clowers was present at Jacob's death.
