First Regiment Infantry (State Troops) (Organized August 24, 1864; Colonel William S. Patton)

Company A -- Capt. Halbert’s Company (county of origin not specified)

Company B -- Capt. Grace’s Company (county of origin not specified)

Company C -- Capt. Blythe’s Company (county of origin not specified) [Co. C, Capt. Blythe]

Company D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K …” [Note Ms-18]

 

Not much is known about Blythe’s Battalion (State Troops), nor about (Zachary) Taylor McAninch; but there are two other probable sightings of the same man, after the end of the war. First, his name appears on a ‘road crew’ work list, “... Belmont Road ... Hands ... Taylor McAinich [sic]” in DeSoto County Board of Police records [ca.1868, Ms-13], and, second, a possible burial record, unmarked graves in DeSoto County, “McAninch, Killey Taylor”, Aug. 1868 [Ms-14].
