Thomas Broyhill
son of James H. Broyhill
1838?-1870?? |
The 1850 Wilkes
County, NC census lists him in the household of his parents as being
12 years old. The 1860 Wilkes census names his wife as Nancy and
there are no children in household. I have found no record of this
marriage.
On May 29, 1862, he enlisted in Company A of
the 7th North Carolina Infantry. This was the same outfit that his
brother James joined a month earlier. His Confederate Military
Records are at the Federal Archives in Washington and state that he born
in Wake, NC in 1839, was over six feet tall, was a farmer prior to the
war and deserted to the Union.
According to Dewey Broyhill, he was murdered
in Avery County, NC as a young man. The date of this death
is conjecture. No known children. |
