William W SALYER:
Born ABT 1843
Died November 1879, Slade Creek, Montgomery Co, KY
Misc. event Type: Military
Misc. event Date: 1863
William enlisted 29 Jan 1863 at West Liberty, KY, in Company B, 14th Cavalry and was captured 19 Mar 1863. His orphaned children would have been eligible for a pension but apparently no one was knowledgeable enough to apply. Their uncle, Stephen Salyer, was appointed their guardian by the Montgomery County Court. As he and his wife were quite young the responsibility was probably too great and the children were placed in an orphanage. Isaiah and Phebe Salyer, their grandparents, became the owners of the farm on Slate Creek and it seems odd that they would have allowed their grandchildren to be placed in an orphanage.
