Notes for Benjamin F Webb
B. F. Webb [May 11 1844 - December 23, 1919] is buried in Halltown Cemetery in Sumner County, TN. The tombstone says, “Gone but not forgotten”226

The following was found in the Tennessee Civil War Regimental Histories:

The Military Annals of Tennessee Confederate. First Series: Embracing a Review of Military Operations with Regimental Histories and Memorial Rolls.
Regimental Histories and Memorial Rolls.
Eighteenth Tennessee Infantry
Captain, B. F. Webb.

Another entry (note the infantry number) says:

The Military Annals of Tennessee Confederate. First Series: Embracing a Review of Military Operations with Regimental Histories and Memorial Rolls.
Regimental Histories and Memorial Rolls.
Nineteenth Tennessee Infantry
Co. C, from Sullivan county: James K. Snapp, Captain; Michael Miles,*[* C. J. St. John was elected but soon resigned, and Miles took his place. ? G. W. Hull was elected and died after a few months when Webb took his place.] First Lieutenant; John W. Jones, Second Lieutenant; Benjamin Webb,? Third Lieutenant.

Still later:

The Military Annals of Tennessee Confederate. First Series: Embracing a Review of Military Operations with Regimental Histories and Memorial Rolls.
Regimental Histories and Memorial Rolls.
Fifty-fifth Tennessee Infantry
Webb, Benjamin, d. Jan. 15, 1862.

This last entry is clearly not the correct Benjamin Webb (since he is on the 1900 census).

All sources of data are documented on the “Person Sheet” for each individual. My early data often came from less-than-reliable sources (e.g., “Sarah’s genealogy pages”). If the only sources for a person is something like that or worse there is no listed source for data, please take the information as only a suggestion and not a fact.
