Note for: Donald (Daniel) McLean, - 1829 Index

Individual note: In 1772, Donald and his brother, John McLean, left Scotland for the United States. They arrived at Wilmington, North Carolina in 1773 and settled there for a time. Donald eventually became known as Daniel due to the similarities in the Gaelic pr onunciation of the two names. This was seen quite often in tax lists, the census, and other public records of the time. Around 1778, Donald
(Daniel) and John removed to Rowan County, NC where they settled on Elk Shoals Creek not far from Statesville, North Carolina.

Note for: Andrew Jackson Cogar, 08 SEP 1834 - 23 AUG 1906 Index

Individual note: Andrew Jackson Cogar enlisted in Company G, 62 Virginia Mounted Infantry of the
Confederate Army, under Capt. G.W. Imboden on Aug. 20, 1862 in Braxton Co., VA.
He was arrested Sep. 20, 1863 in Summersville and was shown on a list of
prisoners confined in Military Prison at Wheeling, WV dated Oct. 2, 1863. He
appears on a Descriptive Roll of rebel deserters within the Department of West
Virginia dated Oct. 15, 1863 at Clarksburg, WV. His description was given as
5 feet 11 inches tall, dark complexion, blue eyes, and dark hair. The disposition
of his case was on Oct. 14, 1863 with the remarks "Sent North". He was released
on Oct. 20, 1863. The records indicate that Jackson, as he was called, along
with his brothers Cornelius, Asa, James and Salathiel served the South faithfully
until the cultural and political division in Virginia prompted the formation of a
new state. With the recognition and admittance of West Virginia into the Union
on June 20, 1863, families were split and brother fought brother. This was the
nightmare for John and Sarah Cogar as at least three of their sons deserted the
Confederate forces to stay with their homeland. Lt. Asa Cogar remained loyal to
the South and fought until the end of the war. He was subsequently arrested,
however, and remained in Prisoner of War prisons until he took the Oath of
Allegiance to the United States at Ft. Delaware, DE on June 17, 1865. Fortunately,
most of this family survived the tragedy of the Civil War. The only known casualty,
Salathiel, the youngest member of the family, contracted smallpox and died at Camp
Washington, Augusta Co., VA on Mar. 16, 1863. The wounds of the war never totally
healed for this family and several of them sold their land in Braxton County, now of
West Virginia and moved west to Arkansas. Andrew Jackson Cogar remained in Braxton
County and was to eventually have a grandson named Arthur Jackson Cogar who was my
maternal grandfather. Many times he has told me this story of how his family fought
each other during "The War". I had almost forgotten my childhood history lessons
with him until I found the records in the Virginia State Archives.
