Joseph Evander Ayres was the second of probably twelve children born to Thomas W. Ayres (1823-1908) and his wife Martha J. Williamson (1824-1910). Joseph, his brother William, and their father Thomas all three served in Co. L, 21st South Carolina Regiment, Confederate States Army. William and Joseph were both killed. One account states they were killed on the same day in the same battle, but the dates from the cemetery listing suggest that Joseph died earlier.
