Highland Recorder July 7, 1907
Burnsville News
Thomas Beverage, of Highland, is doing extremely well under the treatment of D. H. M. Burns for cancer, and it is out and his face healing nicely.

"McClanahan" Company, Staunton Virginia Horse Light Artillery, McGregor's Battalion, Horse Artillery, Cavalry Corps, Army of Northern Virginia, C.S.A.

On 6/16/1900, age 59, living in Covington, Alleghany County, VA., he applied for a total disability Confederate Soldier Pension due to "disease or effects of cancers and erysipelas." He also stated that he served in "McClanahan" Company, Staunton Virginia Horse Light Artillery. (No extant official record of his service in that unit found by biopage author.) He was approved for $30 per annum. He was re-approved until his death.

McClanahan's Battery [also called Staunton Artillery] was organized in February, 1863, and for a time served with the 62nd Regiment Mounted Rifles. The unit served under General Imboden's command, was active in northwestern Virginia, and took part in the Gettysburg Campaign. However, it was not engaged in the battle. Later it participated in Early's operations in the Shenandoah Valley and disbanded during the spring of 1865.
