Captain John NORRIS, captured in SC, during civil war-by Confederates-the father-in-law, of one of my Greataunts, Maggie LARMAN, daughter of Henry LARMAN- -UNION-DC.

1860-1911 | DC/VA/MD/SC

Those who wish to check the 1880 fed census taken in Washington DC, will find one of my GreatGrandGrandfth's family's record.  The only daughter of his not with his last name is one of my GreatGrandfth's sister, Maggie LARMAN-NORRIS, apparently she and her husband did not live together, and this was probably in some way connected with the Civil War.

As far as all my investagations, Maggie and her husband Calvin Christopher Columbus NORRIS, had only one son. BTW, Calvin C.C. J. NORRIS, died in Takoma Park, MD-I think he lived to be abt 80. Anyway he is listed on the 1930 fed census taken I think they may had claimed that area in takoma Park, was DC, at that time- it run's into two counties and on some records is under DC.

Maggie died in DC, in 1911.

My great-great grandfather William B. Phillips was a personal friend of John Norris. Both were officers in the 2nd. PA Provisional Heavy Artillery and were captured at the Battle of the Crater. They were imprisoned together at Camp Asylum, Columbia, S.C. I have 2 original letters written by John Norris to my ancestor dated 8 May and 15 September 1865. They can be viewed online at www.griffingweb.com Greg Taylor-Los Angeles, CA.
