William Pleasant Farmer In Civil War

Submitted by Sharon Roland



                     William Pleasant Farmer
                     Pvt 2nd Reg Ark Inf
                     Company E
                     Enlisted: December 24, 1863
                     Discharged: August 8, 1865

He was married to Elizabeth Daniels who died in 1930 in Haskell Co, OK. They are both buried in the Old Panther Cemetery. His residence was in Jasper, Arkansas. William P. Farmer always had a sawmill where ever he lived and this is probably true since they lived around the national forest area. When the war was going on, the home place in Jasper was burned and William left the war to take care of his family and was charged with desertion, but later returned to duty when his family was okay.
