He says he enlisted Aug 27, 1861 in Bowdon, GA and served with Company B of Cobb's Legion. He says he lived his whole life in GA except for about 13 years he was in Texas. He notes he came back to Georgia 3 years prior. He surrendered at Appamattox VA with his unit. He says he owned 100 acres of land worth about $1000 and had about $50 of household goods. He signed his application with his mark...meaning he could not write his name.
