Cpl Jefferson F. Ballew/Bellew
Co. H, 22nd SC
NOTE: From Darrell Wallace we received the following information.
Jefferson spelled his name Ballew and the Confederate records all record Bellew. According to the 1850 census of Glassy Mountain township of Greeville County South Carolina Jefferson was 31 years old and lived with his wife Charlotte and three daughters, Martha, Sara Jane and Mary and his mother Nancy age 55. This would put his birthdate in the year 1819.
The date of his death or approximate date is somewhere recorded in the Charleston newspaper (Charleston, S.C.) after July 31, 1862 as this was the date of the last letter that we have of him. In my mother's Bible it was recorded that he was killed at Petersburg, VA. but we now know this was faulty information. As a matter of information, he had two sons, the older, Joseph Walker born in 1854 and the younger, Benjamin born in 1855.
