William M. Ash 1821-1865 St Clair County
I am trying to document the military service of William M. Ash, and his sons William Gilbert Ash and James Lafayette Ash. It seems the 2 William's were killed in 1865 during the Civil War, while James L. Ash survived and lived till 1899 in St. Clair County. They were listed as members of company H, 1st Alabama Independent Vidette Cavalry.This unit was disbanded in 1864 and I am looking for the unit they were in at the time of their death. Does anyone have information to help me with this effort.
