Notes:

[R26.3.1]

married in Yadkin Co NC

I think he served in the Civil War (Confederate), 5th NC infantry Co E and 54th NC infantry Co H.
He enlisted 1862-04-13.

I suspect he had a daughter Mary Jane c1862.
On the 1870 census his father Henry has a Mary age 7 in his household. Henry's wife would have been
49 when Mary was born, so it's highly unlikely she is the mother. I think Mary is Christopher's daughter,
and that she was given to Henry's family to raise when he died.
