William Henry Mouser, Confederate veteran, was born in Fannin County, Texas in 1846, to Henry and Learner Cox Mouser.
Sometime prior to 1860, Henry Mouser, who was a veteran of the Mexican War, moved his family to Burleson County, Texas, where he worked as a farmer.
However, he soon left his family to join the Confederate Army. He served as a private in Company C of the 17th Texas Infantry. William, after turning 18 in 1864, followed his father into Confederate service.
He enlisted in Bradford's Regiment, Texas Cavalry, which later became known as Mann's Regiment. Since William enlisted so late in the War, his regiment didn't see much action and was stationed in Galveston, where it was surrendered on June 2, 1865.
Once William left the service, he eventually settled in Uvalde County, near the small community of Reagan Wells, where he worked as a farmer. On May 1, 1874, at the age of 28, he married Miss Nancy Lucinda J. Bingham, also from Fannin County.
On January 27, 1928, William was admitted to the Texas Confederate Home. After less than a month, he died on February 24.
