Looking for more help with William Shockley

[Virginia Dave]

William Shockley Pvt. Co. C 24th Va. Inf.was shot in the neck, captured, and sent to New York's DeCamp General Hospital; he was exchanged but succumbed from his wound in Carroll County, Virginia on November 19, 1863.

I have been unable to find him on Find a Grave or elsewhere. Any help would be appreciated.

I did some looking and came up empty. I noticed you mentioned he died in Carroll County, Virginia. Was that home for him or a Confederate hospital?

That was home. It was known as Grayson county during the war.

Records I found show he was wounded at Gettysburg and captured. He died on Nov 19, 1863. BTW, in the 24th there was William Shockley, William H Shockley, and William Shocksley. This is the one who succumbed to wounds.

This is his CSR.

Hmm I wonder if whatever cemetery he is at or his grave itself just hasn't been added to find-a-grave?

@Big Sarge I know with that many Williams in our family it gets confusing. Especially when they served together. By the way I can't get your attachment to open. I will keep trying. Can you email it to me? [email protected]

I tried Find a Grave and cannot locate it when searching Virginia. He could have been interred elsewhere, but I have no record of it.

Someone more familiar with find a grave will know the answer to this, but I believe the information is user-added, so his not being on there could just be because nobody has added him.

If I could find him I would post it there, plus I am reviewing information on the Shockley Cemetery in Carroll county where he may be. Some of the headstone there are illegible.

 

[Zella]

I bet that might be part of the reason it's never been added. Hope you can find him!
