My maternal gr gr grandfather John Harvey Cox of Sullivan Co East Tn. Co B, 19th Tn Inf was probably conscripted ( drafted ) into the Confederate Army after Sept 1862. One of only 3 file cards shows him " captured July 3, 1863 at Cowan Tn " forwarded to Louisville, Ky " a processing point for rebel p.o.w.'s. John was never delivered north to prison. He was probably allowed to take the Oath of Allegiance to the U.S. and return home. Oral family history says he had several " run-ins " with both Rebs and Yanks during the remainder of the war. He died abt 1906. Through the efforts of my cousins and Cox descendants, Donna Cox Briggs and Brian Cox, a Confederate marker from the state of Tennessee was placed on his grave located at the family " home-place " in 2005.
