I am researching an out-of-control company of Mississippi home guards led by Captain H. C. Price. He and his men were arrested for depredations in 1864, and I have all of the information about it from fold3. My ancestors were some of their victims.
My problem is that I can't find this guy anywhere else. Fold3 records group him with a H.C. Price who was a paid teamster in Georgia in the first part of the war, indicating that the two men are the same.
I just can't find anything on Price before or after the war. I've tried census records, slave schedules and familysearch.org.
The other members of his company that I have names for are:
Lt. Julius B. Poindexter. I have determined that he served earlier in the war in the 21st Miss Inf and the 3rd Miss Inf. He was born about 1840.
Lt. Daniel J. Towson (sometimes Lawson). He previously served in 30th Miss Inf, severely wounded, discharged April, 1862. Married Nancy E. Hendon in Aug, 1861 in Sunflower County, Mississippi.
Lee Attley (or Adley). A conscript.
Any other info about these guys before and after the war would be much appreciated.
