I have since determined that the mother of James N. Ozee's children was not Nancy, but Melissa Chapman Ozee.Melissa died in 1899 and is buried in Hope Cemetery, Henrietta, Clay County, Texas.James N. Ozee was a son of Michael and Martha "Patsy" (Stephanson) Ozee.Both James N. Ozee and his father, Michael, were Privates in Company 'C' of Griffin's Battalion of Texas Infantry (CSA) during the Civil War.Michael enlisted on March 10, 1862 in Tarrant County, Texas, but was given a disability discharge on January 29, 1863 due to illness.James enlisted in the same organization on July 1, 1863, also in Tarrant County, Texas.
