• Notes

  There is another John William Dinning born in Simpson County to David and Sarah Dinning but I believe the next item is our John because he always lived with or close to a family member. He is also listed as not being able to read and write. I'm unsure of the wife named Bettie. Possible listing of John William: "2nd Tennessee Cavalry Battalion, Company F, organized September 27, 1861, at Bowling Green, Kentucky. Became Company B, 6th Tennessee Cavalry. They furnished their own horses and arms. Their horses were given a value to be paid if the horse was lost in service. They were to receive 40 cents per day for use of horse. These sums were seldom, if ever paid. These men were from Sumner County and their records are almost impossible to find. We here give you the names of these men, the value placed on their horses, and as much as possible their service records. Volume I, "Tennesseans in the Civil War" states that their records were among the worst kept: (Note: Below is the only Denning in the list) "Denning, John Will - Horse valued at $175. He was listed in battles at Snow Hill, and Iuka, Mississippi. He was shocked by a concussion from a shell exploding near his head. He was unconscious for eighteen hours. He was captured there. Paroled at Burnsville, Mississippi on November 20, 1863 after taking the Oath." Source: http://hometown.aol.com/cathelk/sumner/keen.htm Confederate Pension applications NAME: Denning, John Will.
