| Amanda and Pryor were married upon his return from the civil war. (Pryor enlisted in the Confederate Army, Co.F, 5th Texas Infantry, the famed Hood's Texas Brigade, which marched away to Va. and fought for four years under Lee in some of the bitter battles of that war. The wartime deprivation, sickness and wounds from the Battle of the Wilderness were devastating to his health in his later years. I have reviewed his military records both in the National Archives and in the Texas State Library Archives.) Pryor Holston Choate, Sr., d.1-19-78, Oates Settlement,(near Houston) Harris Co.,Tx. He was buried at Oates Cemetary (which I have been told was destroyed). |
