Search for Anderson Farnsworth

Search for Anderson Farnsworth, of age to be a possible soldier or scout during the Civil War era:

These possible matches were found (related only by surname and possible match for first name); specifically searched for possible "Anderson" Farnsworth, because of the prominence of that name in Murray County, Georgia (to see if any relationship to Farnsworth in a Michigan unit). There probably was no relationship at all. Also, these results are not necessarily related to the original subject of search, a Union scout named Farnsworth, but are of an age that one of them might be him. However, later research showed that the Farnsworth scouts of interest to the project being searched were George Farnsworth and Seth Farnsworth, not Anderson Farnsworth.

1850 US Census:

Anderson Farnsworth, born 1825-1826, Tennessee. Residence in 1850: Murray County, Georgia. He would be about 37-38 in 1863.

A. H. Farnsworth, born about 1828, Tennessee. Residence in 1850: Murray County, Georgia. He would be 35 in 1863.

1860 US Census:
Anderson Farnsworth, born 1825-1826, Tennessee. Residence in 1860: Murray County, Georgia. He would be about 37-38 in 1863.

Jos. A. Farnsworth, born 1835. Residence in 1860: Greene County, Tennessee. (He would be about 28 in 1863).

John A. Farnsworth, born about 1858, Georgia. Residence in 1860: Murray County, Georgia.

1870 US Census:
A. F. Farnsworth, born 1843-1844, aged 26 in 1870. Aged 19 in 1863. In 1870, he is in the household of Isaac Kilgo in Rock Spring area, Walker County, Georgia. Occupation: Farm Laborer.

1880 US Census:
A. A. Farnsworth, born 1828, Tennessee. Residence in 1880, Henderson County, Tennessee.

Nat. A. Farnsworth, born 1823, Tennessee. Residence in 1880: Washington County, Tennessee.

A. B. Farnsworth, born 1847, New York. Residence in 1880: Venice County, Michigan.

1900 US Census:

Anderson Farnsworth, born Nov. 1821, Tennessee. Residence in 1900: Dalton, Whitfield, Georgia. He would be 42 in 1863.

Other Sources:

Anderson Farnsworth, mentioned in Confederate Papers Relating to Citizens or Business Firms. Event place: Georgia. Document type: Citizen. Source: Microfilm no. M346, Film no. 296. No other details available, but index source might lead to further research.

Lt. Louis Alden Simmons, 84th Illinois Infantry (prob. at Cleveland, Tenn., Spring 1864)

Identity of Lt. Simmons in the Myra Inman Diary

Myra Inman was a young lady who lived in Cleveland, Tennessee, during the Civil War. She was very Southern in her sympathies, empathizing with the Confederates. Her family ran a boarding house in Cleveland, so during the northern occupation, officers would sometimes stay at the house, and often came for meals. The Inman diary has been published as Myra Inman: A Diary of the Civil War in East Tennessee.

The Myra Inman diary mentions Lt. Simmons, also known as A. Simmons, who courts her in the Spring of 1864 while he is stationed at Cleveland, Tennessee. She is Southern and says that she dislikes him (though there were signs that she liked him, at times). This Lt. Simmons has his 31st birthday on March 16, 1864 (Inman Diary pg. 254). After he leaves Cleveland, he gets married. On December 27, 1865, she learns the news about Mr. Simmons from a friend, Lizzie Lea, who received a letter. Myra hears "that he was married to a woman from Lynchfield, Mass. (Inman Diary 333)."

William R. Snell, ed. Myra Inman: A Diary of the Civil War in East Tennessee, (1859-1866), (Macon: Mercer University Press, 2000), 254, 333.

Bibliog. info on Myra Inman: A Diary of the Civil War in East Tennessee
http://musescivilwar.blogspot.com/2016/08/myra-inman-diary-bibliographic.html

My identification, based on genealogy profiles and sources, is that he is:

Louis Alden Simmons, 1st Lieutenant and 2nd Major, 84th Illinois Infantry, and author of the regimental history of that regiment. He is the son of Hezekiah and Zoa (Daily) Simmons, who married in North Bridgewater, Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1830. Louis Simmons was born in Massachusetts on March 16, 1833 (which would make him 31 in 1864). He married (1) Maria Theresa Harwood on November 20, 1865, in Fitchburg, Worcester, Massachusetts (not Lynchfield, as Myra recalled the town. The marriage occurred about a month before Myra heard the news). Simmons moved to Illinois by about 1850, eventually settling in Macomb, McDonough, Illinois. Simmons died December 6, 1888, and is buried at Prairie Lawn Cemetery, Wellington, Sumner, Kansas, US.

I attached some notes about the Inman diary to this soldier's profile on FamilySearch.org.

84th Regiment Illinois Infantry

84th Illinois Infantry was attached to Oliver O. Howard's 4th Army Corps from October 1863 to June 1865. It was one of the regiments of Col. William Grose's Third Brigade, in Maj Gen. David S. Stanley's First Division. Note that even though this was an infantry regiment, it was placed in a cavalry brigade. This is not so unusual in the Civil War.  General Oliver O. Howard's Fourth Army Corps was headquartered at Blue Springs, five miles in advance of Cleveland, Tennessee, in February 1864.

Elisha Bryant: one Confederate, One Union (probably two different individuals, unless a conscript who deserted)

Links to two records for (apparently) two different persons named Elisha Bryant (one Confederate, one Union).

Name: Raymond Confederate Cemetery (by Rebecca Blackwell Drake)

"The Confederate Cemetery has 140 graves of soldiers mortally wounded in the Battle of Raymond, May 12, 1863. The Civil War soldiers, mostly from Tennessee and Texas, died in private residences around the town that served as hospitals. A few probably died of sickness while stationed in the area or died of wounds from various local skirmishes or nearby battles such as Champion's Hill. Those that were killed outright on the battlefield of Raymond were reported to have been buried where they fell by Union soldiers."

None of ours listed.
