Adopt a Civil War Veteran !

Slip into the past and visit the brave soldier's who fought for their belief during the Civil war that tore our nation and families apart. Listen to the tales of hardship, family sacrifice, bloodshed, miracles, and the valiant men coming home to their loved ones.

Be a Volunteer!


The Henderson County KyGenWeb is recruiting volunteers to select a HENDERSON COUNTY CIVIL WAR VETERAN and do some research on him and prepare an essay. The essay's content should tell a story that includes, Name, rank, Regiment, Company, Commanding officer, what campaigns or battles he participated in, where he joined, age of enlistment, Union or Confederate, or any other highlights you wish to include like pension data etc. Also include at the end how you're related to the veteran and your full name. If you are fortunate enough to have a photo of this veteran in uniform that would add a special touch. Please contact Tina Hall if you would like to adopt someone listed.

Elijah R. Averitt born 2-18-1840 in Virginia and moved to Trimble County, Kentucky, son of Thomas Crymes Averitt and Ann C. Rowlett.  Elijah married Hannah B. Webster on June 1, 1840 in Trimble County, Kentucky. Elijah was captured July 19, 1863 during the Buffington Island battle [Meigs County, Ohio], the only Civil War battle to occur on Ohio soil.  Transferred from Camp Chase in Columbus, Ohio on August 20, 1863 to Camp Douglas, Illinois - POW camp where Elijah died.  Records indicate he died of Bilious Fever.   Six thousand confederate prisoners of war who died at Camp Douglas are buried together in Oak Woods Cemetery  beneath a towering monument which has plaques of names of confederate soldiers.   On one of these plaques bears the name of  Elijah B. Averett.{Records seem to indicate it should be Elijah R. Averitt} Under Elijah's name is R. Averitt, Tenn, who is a half 2nd cousin to Elijah.

CHEANEY, James Madison - CSA


Born 9 September 1835 in Henderson county, Ky and died 20 February 1915, Henderson County, Ky. He married Amanda Pepper born 5 April 1850, New Philadelphia, Tuscarawas Co., Oh who died 22 Oct 1936, Henderson County, Ky. She was the daughter of Albert Reardon Pepper and Charlotte Johnston.

James Madison CHEANEY felt that slavery was a great wrong even tho his father and relatives owned slaves. When the war came in 1861, he had a deeply-held feeling tht war was wrong, but he believed in the Southern cause. Instead of enlisting in the Confederate Army, he decided to work as a spy and as a carrier of needed supplies like Quinine and othr drugs for the troops. He had several narrow escapes; once he was forced to hide under a counter in a store while being pursued. Finally he was caught and sent to Johnson's Island.
