Of the 188 men of Company B: 18 were captured; 8 at Franklin, 6 at Missionary Ridge, which is known by several names, and one each at Citronelle, Alabama, Yazoo, Mississippi and Nashville. The place of capture for one soldier is unknown. 22 were Killed in Action, 35 Died of Illness, and 3 Died in Prisons. Those killed in action died as follows: 13 at Franklin, 3 at Atlanta, 2 at Jonesboro, 2 at Lovejoy, and one each at Kennesaw Mt. and Nashville. In addition to the 22 killed, 19 members were wounded. Although it is difficult to see who was wounded at Franklin and who at Nashville, there appear to be 4 at Franklin and none at Nashville, 6 at Rescea, 3 at Atlanta and one each at Lookout Mt., Pine Knot Mt., Kennesaw Mt., Jonesboro and Lovejoy. It is unknown at this time where one man was wounded. There were 28 men present at the Surrender. 19 attended the 1883 meeting where the colors were brought from hiding. 3 members of B Company that were captured, galvanized or fought for the Union. Seven men came from Anderson and one from Spartanburg, the rest from Greenville. One man is carried as having deserted. Many men were listed as having deserted the 16th but most show up again. This man in B Company remains unaccounted for as do a number of others in other companies. I consider this to be one of the strong companies of the regiment or one of the lucky ones. |

Soon after the southern states were allowed to form militias, he received a commisison as Captain in what was known as the Mauldin or Butler Guards. He farmed all his life up until his death. As a side note, his Grandfather, Benjamin Griffith, my Great-Great-Great Grandfather, moved to what is now the Mauldin, SC area in 1784 from Pennsylvania and was the first white settler in the area as he received a 100 acre land grant to move there. He obtained a total of 967 acres while farming there with his brother Eli. This is the property that is along the Laurel Creek in Mauldin, SC. Also from Official Confederate rolls that I got from the SC state archives it mentions that on April 9, 1865 the 24th SC Inf. was consolidated with the 16th SC Inf. and formed the 16th and 24th (Consolidated) SC Inf.

| Beam, G.W. | P | B | Wounded 9/21/63 (CSR) | The Beam connection began with an entry in the African American Confederate Pensioners published by the South Carolina Department of Archives and History.
(South Carolina's African American Confederate Pensioners 1923-1925, Dr. Alexia Jones Helsley, S.C. Dept. of Archives and History, page 71, SMB) The entry was for Morgan, Alford (one of my wife's ancestors). It reads as follows: MORGAN, Alford Newberry, Newberry County Cook under three Beam Boys, CSA Served 1861 - April 1865 Applied 6 April 1923; approved 23 April 1923 Affidavits: J.H. Alewine and E.S. Cromer Application #8607: Alford Morgan, married, day laborer, 75 years old, died 22 May 1923 in Newberry County. He was born in 1848 and was the son of Salley and Manas Morgan. This led me to search for Beam families in Newberry - there are very few, but I found this information in Eleanor Clyburn Wicker's 1850 Census Newberry County, South Carolina with Genealogical Data on Many Families (1985 Edition Revised): Beam, Reuben (40) 1. , Ann (32) , Francis M.(15) 4. , James W.

Albert Beam, b c1848; m. Mary Jane Eskew. A researcher of Newberry supplied me with information that "12 men with the surname Beam served in SC for Confederacy" and she gave me the names of six of them, broken into three sets of twos. Of those, G. W. Beam and R. H. Beam seemed the most likely match to the 1850 Census information. (G.) William Beam Reuben Hamilton (Hampton) Beam Based on their ages in that 1850 Census, their families connection to Greenville and to Newberry - I feel pretty confident that they are two of the three Beam Boys mentioned in Alford Morgan's Confederate Pension Application. I still don't know who the third Beam Boy might have been. Any help connecting the information would be appreciated. brbirogers@msn.com | . |
