Note (2) THIS MUST BE HIM - William Rollins in the 1850 United States Federal Census Name: William Rollins Age: 7 Birth Year: abt 1843 Birthplace: Virginia Home in 1850: Montrose, Lee, Iowa, USA Gender: Male Family Number: 187 Household Members: Name Age Jeremiah Rollins 34 Nancy Rollins 34 Samuel Rollins 15 Martin Rollins 14 John Rollins 11 Leroy Rollins 9 William Rollins 7 Wesley Rollins 5 Susan Rollins 4 Mary Jane Rollins 3 Not Named Rollins 0 Note (3) On 18 Jun 1861 in Clarksburg, Hiram Rollins, at the age of 21, joined for duty and enrolled as a Private in Co. G, 3rd W.Va. Volunteer Infantry. He mustered in on 25 Jun 1861 in Clarksburg. (NOTE: The 3rd Virginia Volunteer Infantry was a regiment that served in the Union Army. The regiment was redesignated the 6th W.Va. Volunteer Cavalry on 26 Jan 1864.) The company muster roll for July/Aug 1862 states that Hiram Rollins was wounded and in the hospital. The May/Jun 1863 muster roll states that he deserted and was under arrest. He was arrested on 17 May 1863 in Lewis County. The July/Aug 1863 muster roll states that he was under arrest at Fort Delaware by sentence of General Court Martial. He mustered out on 31 Jan 1864 in Martinsburg, West Virginia, to transfer to Co. B, 6th W.Va Volunteer Cavalry, to which he mustered in on 1 Feb 1864 as a Private at Martinsburg. The company muster roll for Jan/Feb 1865 states that Hiram Rollins was absent without leave since 19 Feb 1865. The May/Jun 1865 muster roll states that he returned from desertion on 20 Jun 1865 and was to forfeit 6 months pay, by order of General Court Martial. On 24 Nov 1865, he was under arrest at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, on the Descriptive List of Deserters. On 23 Oct 1871, it was ruled that he had been dishonorably discharged for desertion, discharge date not specified. On 26 July 1900, the dishonorable discharge was rescinded. Note (4) Age 22 at time of 1883 marriage would put birth in about 1861, but date on grave marker is 1856, while the 1900 Census shows it as March 1859. Note (5) 1900 Census shows birth date as May 1890, but death record states age at death as 50y 4m 24d, which computes to a birth date of Jun 2 1890. Her delayed birth record, which incorrectly identifies her mother as Mary Elizabeth Gain (actually her stepmother), states her birth date as May 29 1890, as does her obituary. Note (6) Birth date given in 1900 Census as Sep 1892. Note (7) but 1900 Census gives age as 2 and birthdate as June 1898
