Name: Nancy L (Gambill) Wakeman <n.wakeman@verizon.net> Date: 2009-01-25 14th KY Ancestor(s) Jesse Gambill Place of Birth Lawrence County, Kentucky Residence at time of enlistment - County/State Martha, Lawrence, Kentucky Comments:
Jesse Gambill was my gr gr grandfather and a Private in the 14th KY Inf, Co. B. Jesse's wife, "Ellen" Bogg's, brother, Nelson T Boggs was a Private in Co. B and killed @ Middle Creek. Jesse's brother in law Levi J Sparks, MD was in Co. B Levi was married to Jesse's sister, Mary "Polly" Gambill. Jesse's nephew, Henry Harrison Gambill was in Co. B and a prisoner of war in the Andersonville prison for 8 months. When he was released and sent back to Kentucky, the steamer vessel, Sultana, blew a boiler and killed over 1500 troops and passengers in 1865 on the Missippi. There is a book that tells Henry's account as well as other survivors. Martin Sparks of Lawrence/Elliott Co was a Gr Gr Grandfather (his daughter, Peggy, married Jesse's son, Martin) and he served in the Confederate's KY 5th Inf. until their defeat, he then went home to Lawrence Co. and reenlisted into the Union 40th, Co. C. The men of 14th KY, Co B from Lawrence County are more related and connected than many realize. Many of their ancestors came out of VA and Wilkes Co., NC in the early 1800's. I believe the connections go back to the Revolutionary War and/or to Scotch Irish ancestry.

Remember ME??? I doubt it but we met at Fallsburg a few years back, corresponded on Moore/Fallsburg sites. Marlitta every time I check your 14th Ky site I am amazed at all you've done. Great job gal and I appreciate it so much. We just returned from Fla and visited Chattanooga/Andersonville and several other battlefields down that way. I was almost in tears the whole time. We've been to Chattanooga many years ago---at that time I didn't know my gfather actually FOUGHT there. So sad. SOOOO much Civil War research I've got to do on these guys--they were actually from Ala/Ga--not my Ky clan.:) Thanks again Marlitta, hope to see you in June. Lu

Great web site. I've had a great time looking through the information. As a Civil War re-enactor in California, I'm got a special place in my heart for the civil war and though I'm a confederate re-enactor, I've always been very proud of my ancestors in blue. I've only recently learned that my ancestors were members of the 14th KY infantry, so I'm really enjoying learning about the regiment. THanks for all you do.

He applied for his pension while living in Kansas and that is where his widow, my great grandmother Jamima Jane applied for widow's benefits in May of 1899.

My name is David Cordial. I am a Chief Petty Officer in the US Navy, onboard the USS John C Stennis. My father,(deceased) was Lovell Cordial. His Father/Mother was Celcie Cordial & Lillie Boyd. They are buried up Horse Pitcher Road of of route 23, on a hill of the family graveyard. His father/mother was William J Cordial & Elizabeth F Thompson. His father/mother was Amos Cordial/Cordle and Jane Thompson. His father/mother was William Cordial/Cordle and Jane Wheeler. William is the man who moved the Cordials to Kentucky from North Carolina. Amos Cordial was the brother of Ralph and John Michael who served in the 14th KY Infantry. That makes them my great,great,great uncles. I have many family still living in Lawrence County. My mother's, (Ellen Preston-Cordial), has many Preston's living in that area also. You might say all the way up and down the Big Sandy river. I have traced our family back to Scotland to a Stephen Caudill who seems to have arrived here in North Carolina. The last relative that I was able to track online was a Thomas Caudill in 1607 in England. I have found that the Cordial name has gone through various spellings over the centuries. To include Cordle, Caudle, Caudill and others. I hope to hear back from you on any of this information. And I would like to know if this qualifies me to be an honorary member of the 14th KY. It would be a priviledge. Thank you for your time and efforts. This site was most informative.

Name: Zane D. Perry <ZaneDPerry@MyFamily.com> Date: 2003-10-21 14th KY Ancestor(s) William Carter Salmons Place of Birth Lawrence County, Kentucky Residence at time of enlistment - County/State Bull Creek, Wayne County, (W)Virginia Comments:
I've really enjoyed this site. William Carter Salmons was my great-great-grandfather. I have two really good photos of "Bill", but my e-mail gets returned when I try to forward them for inclusion on this site. I also have a good photo of his headstone, which is located at the Salmons Cemetery at the Forks of Bull Creek, Wayne County, West Virginia.
One family story is that Bill would help drive the wagons between battles. When a heavy rain would come, Bill would take a board he carried along with him in the wagon and would slide the board over both axles of the wagon, and would sleep on top of the board under the wagon to stay dry. Another family story is that Bill loved to drink coffee. Once, while brewing his coffee along the side of the railroad tracks, Bill's troop train was pulling out. His buddies on the end of the train hollered out for Bill to hurry or he'd miss the train. Bill stayed with his coffee pot as long as he could to get the coffee brewed, and then had to run behind the train with his pot full of brewed coffee to catch up with the train. One last family story is that Bill was helping load watermelons into a boat while they were in Georgia. Supposedly they had "commandeered" the melons during their march through Georgia. While they were loading the melons, a fellow soldier from back home made a derogatory comment about one of Bill's sisters. Bill hit the soldier, who fell into the boat smashing some of the melons.
I look forward to reading more about this unit.

Great job Marlitta! Thank you for passing on the new addy to me, I appreciate it, as I check this site often, as it is one of my favorites! And, thanks for posting my john B. Epling! Quite the handsome fellow for an older fellow when taken.
I would like for the Jimmie Epling to contact me! Might have in the past, but...one never knows! I really liked reading the Memorial that he posted. It's been awhile since I have "worked" my Eplings.
My John Bogel fought for the North, which surprised me when I started doing my research on this family, as I would have thought being from Kentucky, he'd have been a Southern advicate of the Civil War. Well, then again, I had ancestors from Indiana that were "Southern Sympathizers." But John was 'for" the North.
Again, good job well done, I may have some tidbits here for your book, which I would love to know about when you are finished!
Kind Regards,
Tammy
