from the 1932 memoirs of my great great Grandfather on fleeing Mississippi with his parents during the Union occupation:
“There on September 6th 1863, my Mother gave birth to a boy-baby, whom she named for his father James C. Brandon. But due to the strain and hardship of that long wagon journey to Shubuta, the baby’s birth was premature and he lived only a few hours. I remember very clearly going with my father in a carriage with the baby in its little coffin on the seat beside us.”
