Walker, Jacob C. Walker, Thomas 1 L.D. Fowler, born about 1838, was likely a younger brother of C.C. Fowler and our Mary Fowler Lyles.   2 Coleman Carlisle Fowler, born about 1825, was likely a brother of our Mary Fowler Lyles and a son of Coleman Fowler.   3 Listed as "Louis Liles," David Lewis Liles, born about 1829, was a son of Hugh Isham Liles and Jenny Lyles.   4 This is the younger Hugh Isham Liles, born about 1822, another son of Hugh Isham and Jenny Liles. He died in 1863 from wounds suffered at Lookout Mountain, Tennessee.   5 Jonah Liles, born in 1846 as the eldest son of Joseph Liles, Jr., enlisted in 1864 and was parolled at Appomattox on April 9, 1865.   6 Joseph Liles, Jr., born in 1819 or 1820, enlisted in Nov. 1861 and was discharged in Jan. 1862 because of his asthma.   7 This William A. Liles has not been confirmed from other company records. He is not our William Albert Lyles, who enlisted in the 1st SC State Troops. If this listing is accurate, this man was a son of Levi Liles, born about 1846.   8 William B. Liles, born about 1842, was another son of Hugh Isham and Jenny Liles. He was killed in May 1864 at Spotsylvania Court House, Virginia.     This list is based on one by Bessie Stribling, United Daughters of the Confederacy, 1923, and modified in light of our recent research.
