GEORGE STEPHEN WILSON

I am trying to find some information about my grandfather who was supposed to have been a water boy during this war. My mother wants to know something about him while she is still living. She is 80 years old now. She was 6 when he died and all she knows is that he was somewhere between 75 and 90 when he died and that he was a water boy during the war between the states. His name was GEORGE STEPHEN WILSON. If there is any way I can find out something about him, please help me to find where to go. Thank you, Judy Martin

RANKIN ~ WHEELER

Thank you so much for "Who Were These Men?" I am searching for Lieut. Robert C Rankin, born Bartow County, GA and 1st GA Cavalry Col Morriswon, Gen Joe Wheeler. The above article has renewed my faith that this soldier will be found. He has affected so many lives, including mine, yet is just almost unknown other than that. The only information I have is from an election folder from his son's running for Sheriff in Cleburne Co AL and his wife's pension in Alabama. Now I have places to look! I would also welcome any information from the readers here. M. Blevins
