I checked my subscription genealogy si...Hi Barbara,<br />I checked my subscription genealogy site and found that Mrs. Cornelia Barrett Ligon received a pension from the state of Texas in 1912 until her death in 1932 from her husbands Confederate service.<br />Buxto Towns Ligon enlisted in the Confederate Army, Co A, 1st Mississippi Light Artillery on 13 May 1862 until their surrender at Jackson Mississippi. The Company was discharged by "parole at the close of hostilities" at Jackson MS. 12 Feb 1865. By the time of parole, Buxto Ligon was a Sergeant in his Company.<br />I checked Westar Wright also. It appears he and Buxton served together in Co A, 1st MS Lt Arty.<br />You always find the BEST stories!<br /> <br />JillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
