5	"Confederate Military History, Extended Edition, Vol. III, West Virginia, by. Col. Robert White et al, copyright 1899 by Confederate Publishing Company, reprinted 1987 by Broadfoot Publishing Company, Wilmington, NC. pg. 139-141 "Lieutenant Joseph Coleman Alderson, of Wheeling, W. Va., distinguished among the Confederate soldiers of Greenbrier county for faithful and devoted service, was born at Locust Grove, Amherst county, Va., October 19, 1839, the home of his maternal grandfather, John Coleman. His father, Rev. L. A. Alderson, a few years later removed to the old stone mansion opposite the town of Alderson, on the Greenbrier river, where young Alderson was reared. He was educated at the Lewisburg academy and Alleghany college, at Blue Sulphur Springs, an institution which was destroyed by the war. In his senior year at this college he enlisted on April 15, 1861, in the Greenbrier cavalry, a company which served in the West Virginia campaign of 1861 as bodyguard for General Garnett until his death, and afterward as bodyguard to Gen. R. E. Lee, and as his couriers until he left that department. In December following the company was disbanded. Alderson was a young man of remarkable physical development and a famous athlete, qualities which, added to great personal daring, made him a natural leader among his fellows. He devoted his talents to the Confederate cause by raising a new cavalry company, of which he was elected second lieutenant. This company was assigned to the Fourteenth cavalry regiment, and Lieutenant Alderson a few months later organized another company, of which he was made first lieutenant, declining, as in the previous instance, the rank of captain. This became Company A, of the Thirty-sixth Virginia battalion of cavalry, distinguished in the commands of General Jenkins and W. E. Jones. Lieutenant Alderson commanded this company from June 12, 1863, to the close of the war, and was frequently in command of the battalion, acting as major. During his four years' service he never had but eight days' leave of absence from his command. He commanded his company at the fight at Buchanan, Upshur county, was in the fights at Weston, W. Va.; Ravenswood and Racine, on the Ohio river; Charleston and Buffalo, W. Va., and in the winter of 1862 was sent on detailed service to Roanoke, Va. Returning in the early summer of 1863, he passed through Lexington, Va., on the day of the interment of the body of Stonewall Jackson, and his company fired the military salute over the dead hero's grave. He next fought at Opequon, captured and brought in eight Yankees at North Mountain Gap, and then participating in the Pennsylvania campaign skirmished every day and night as far as Carlisle, Pa., whence he was sent with an escort of five men to carry important dispatches to General Early, near York, seventy miles away, through the enemy's country, one of his most daring exploits. He was with his command at Gettysburg, carried the first order on the first day from General Ewell to General Rhodes, and at night gave General Lee the first news of the Federal reinforcements. In the cavalry fight which followed from Hagerstown to Williamsport he was wounded by a fragment of shell and disabled two months. In 1864 he was in battle at Jonesville, W. Va. ; Cumberland Gap, Rogersville, Tenn.; Waynesboro, Va., and Pettit's Mill. In the last encounter he was captured by the enemy. His conduct while a prisoner strikingly displayed his unconquerable spirit. He had hardly well started on the road north before he secured the escape of twenty-seven of his Confederate comrades, and while confined at Camp Chase, Ohio, he made three ineffectual attempts to escape by tunneling. He refused alike to take the oath or to give his parole on condition of remaining North. Finally,in February, 1865, he was sent to Fort McHenry and Point Lookout, and in the following month was exchanged at City Point. While on his way to rejoin the army he was informed of the end of the war. He took part, in all, in over two hundred engagements, and his service was frequently of the most arduous character, as in the winter of 1863-64, when he was in daily fighting, and in the Tennessee campaign, under General Jones, when he was on the march every night. Going west in 1865 he had charge of the middle division of the Butterfield overland express through the Indian country until it was broken up by the red men, when he joined his father and farmed near Atchison, Kan. Since 1869 he has resided at Wheeling, and has conducted an extensive insurance business and dealt largely in coal and timber lands. He has declined political advancement, but served as a West Virginia commissioner at the Ohio Valley centennial at Cincinnati in 1888 and at the Washington centennial in New York in 1889. He married Miss Mary, daughter of ex-Gov. Samuel Price, of Virginia. "Monroe Co. Watchman, Union, Monroe Co., WV: 5 Jan 1905. Major J. Coleman Alderson of Greenbrier Co., now of New York City, married Mary Calvert Kirker at the home of her uncle Mr. Charles Kirker in Wellsburg, WV, on Friday 30 Dec 1904. "5 Dec 1912. Major J. Coleman Alderson died Thursday, 28 Nov 1912 in Charles- ton. He was the eldest son of the Rev. Lewis A. Alderson and was born in Locust Grove, Amherst Co., VA on 29 Oct 1839. He was aged 74. He joined the Confederate Army on 16 Apr 1861 and was a private in the Greenbrier Cavalry. In April 1862 he became a 2nd Lieutenant, and in Dec 1862 a 1st Lieutenant. He was a member of Company A, 36th Battalion Virginia Cavalry, and was in East Tennessee in 1863 under General William E. Jones. He was injured twice, once in Maryland and once in Virginia. He was captured on 12 Jun 1864 and sent to Camp Chase, Ohio. After the war he was in the coal and timber business, and founded Williamson and Bellepoint, and Mt. Lake Park and Loch Lynn Heights in Maryland. In 1874 he married Mary Price, daughter of Gov. Samuel Price of Greenbrier Co. She died in 1895, and 8 years ago he married Mrs. Mary Kirker of Wellsburg, WV. He is survived by his wife and nephew George P. Alderson. He was a Baptist and was buried at the Greenbrier Baptist Church in Alderson."

11	Nov. 1852. John Washington Bainbridge, his daughters Ann Marie and Harriet Amanda, along with Amanda's husband Henry Clay Bailey left Macoupin County, Illinois, via New Orleans, Orleans, Louisiana Steamship, a walking/pack train across to Panama, they took a sailing ship bound for San Francisco, California. When they put in at Puntarenas, Costa Rica, John W. Bainbridge was so ill that he was taken a shore. Three days later he died, on New Years Day. The local people arranged for him to be buried with full Catholic Rites, in the Catholic Cemetery on the peninsula across the bay. The rest of the family continued on to San Francisco, California. The First Mate on the ship was, according to Henry Clay Bailey's log, was Aaron Thompson, who became Ann Maria's Husband. John Pope and Frederick Nantz Bainbridge were in the Sacramento, California area about the same time. After the birth of Ann Katherine Bailey, 18 Sept. 1865, Henry Clay Bailey sold his Colusa California property and the family returned to Illinois. By this time Jane Powell, first wife of James S. Fletcher, now widow of John Washington Bainbridge, had married Henry Clay Bailey's father. Harriet Amanda did not get along with her step-mother-in-law any better than with her step mother, so they went down to Texas to join one of Henry's brothers for an Oxen drawn covered wagon trip to San Diego, California in 1868/1869. They never left California again. It might be pointed out that Henry Clay Bailey was in direct line from William Bailey, who was a surveyor in the original party who came to Jamestown, Virginia in 1607. His son Thomas was the first "little old wine-maker" in Virginia.	BAINBRIDGE John Washington

33	Martha Walker "Mattie" Browning was born in Oktibbeha County, Mississippi on May 1, 1848. Mattie was only four or five years old at the time of the Brownings move to Texas. Mattie was an independent young girl and was an excellent horseman as were all the Browning children. As the daughter of one of the wealthiest planters in Washington County, and with her family so involved in Chappell Hill's social circle, she could no doubt have had her pick of Chappell Hill's finest young men. The man she chose was James Fiske "Capt Doc" Matthews. "Capt Doc" had been her adored brother's superior officer when he was killed in 1863 at Knoxville, TN. Martha Walker "Mattie" Browning and James Fiske Matthews were married July 4, 1867. They had six children. After the death of Colonel Browning, "Capt Doc" and Mattie operated the Browning Plantation. As her part of the inheritance Mattie received the central third of the plantation, including the mansion. Capt Doc died in Chappell Hill on December 7, 1881. Mattie survived him by twenty seven years, dying on March 20, 1906. (Source: Roots of Courage by John Leonard Hahn)	BROWNING Martha Walker
