• Notes

  Died at age 40 years, 10 months, 5 days. ------------------------- From a book written by Brent Holcomb of newspaper articles from the Greenville paper articles between 1826-1869: Henry Basco Hendrix died in the Civil War, and was buried in N.Y. A marker does not exist at Sharon for him, though. It seems that he was captured during an engagement near Petersburg, VA, taken prisoner of war, and died at Elmira, NY. Another bit of information from his Military records was that he deserted for about six months. He was born 24 May 1824,and died in the Civil war May 16, 1865. He married Lucinda Avaline Johnson, who was born Dec 6 1825 and died Dec 4 1893. She is buried at Sharon Methodist, Reidville, SC. Her parents were Lemuel Johnson (1799-1888) and Polly Leonard (1800-1888) Polly's father Jonas Leonard was the founder of Sharon Methodist Church // Note: see external file Henry_Basco_Hendrix_1924_Notes.txt --------------------------------------- Henry enlisted in Company C, 22nd South Carolina Infantry on January 10, 1862 at Columbia, South Carolina. He was absent without leave from May 17, 1863 through October 17, 1863. He returned to duty subsequent to November - December 1863. He was captured near Petersburg, Virginia on July 30, 1864 and imprisoned at Point Lookout yankee prison, Maryland on August 5, 1864. He was transferred to Elmira yankee prison, Elmira, New York on August 8, 1864 and died at Elmira on March 29, 1865 of chronic diarrhea. -- Source: John T. Nash.
