Note on original compilation:  “I tried to copy the list verbatim….even placing the periods where they don’t quite belong. I added just 1 or 2 notes …. obvious things. Cash<\/strong> researcher Louise Bryant Rogers<\/strong> provided my with the infomation. If anyone needs a point of contact for Monroe Cash<\/strong> or Stephen Ford<\/strong> … my email is: [removed].  Monroe<\/strong> was Louise<\/strong> and [my] 2nd great grandfather. He joined this unit in Knoxville, TN in Jan. 1862…..went to Welcker<\/strong>‘s TN Cav. Bn in late 1863 and then back to this same unit…the 5th early in 1864 to War’s end. Stephen Ford<\/strong> was his wife’s relative. I think the James Edgeman<\/strong> is the same as Pollard Edgemond<\/strong> at: http:\/\/www.tennessee-scv.org\/heroes\/edgemond.htm or James<\/strong> is his brother. A lot of these guys went by their middle name …. my Monroe<\/strong> was James Monroe Cash<\/strong> b. 1826 TN, but he went by Monroe<\/strong>. Hope this may provide something good to others.
\nSubmitters note: These men surrendered at War\u2019s end in Charlotte, NC as a part of the 5th Tennessee Cavalry (McKenzie<\/strong>\u2019s), Co. B (Blythe<\/strong>\u2019s), and accordingly some of the members who had fought w\/ the unit previous to May 3rd, 1865 are not listed.<\/p>\n
