Memorable Moments & Stories

  • Other: Linville Edwards Source - Clint Edwards - '...In Civil War, according to B. Blankenship and genealogist Willa B. Cooper states inher letter of 18 August, 1991, 'John and Linville were in the Civil War together and while on their way home thru Kentucky, one of them, reportedly Linville, got a fever and died in an abandoned cabin in Kentucky...'..1

Other Major Events

  • Military: Linville Edwards military service, Private, Company G, 58th North Carolina Infantry, Confederate States Army.2
  • Military: circa 1861, John W. Edwards military service, '...Information from Bobby G. Edwards, Robbinsville, NC in letter dated 11 Feb 1991. According to Willa B. Cooper, this John served in the Civil War along with his half-brother Linville...'. Source - Clint Edwards

    Since there is both a Lynville and a John Edwards in Company G, 58th North Carolina Infantry, it is assumed that these are the brothers. This could also be a mistaken assumption.1
