Pvt. Isaac E. [Estis?] Rayborn+++ (b. Lawrence County, MS, 1837-d. Lawrence County, MS, 1913***), Co. H ("Dixie Guards," raised in Pike County, MS), 39th MS Infantry. Enlisted May 5, 1862, at Summit, Pike County, MS, at age 25. Present on April 1863 company muster roll. Surrendered and paroled after the horrific 48-day Siege of Port Hudson, LA, on July 9, 1863. Dec. 31, 1863, company muster roll states "absent, not reported to Parole Camp." Feb. 1863 [1864?] company muster roll states "present, one month's pay stopped by sentence of Court Martial, Dec. 19, 1863." No further records in his military file. Buried in the Providence Baptist Church Cemetery, Providence Road, 2 miles NW of Jayess, Lawrence County, MS, with a private marker.Confederate marker. [+++Name carried on microfilmed military records is "J.E. Raborn." However, these records were transcribed by hand and then microfilmed. When his grandson filed for a VA marker for this soldier, the descendant listed the soldier as "Isaac E. Raiborn." The VA, having access to the ORIGINAL records, corrected the name for the marker to "I.E. Raborn." There is no doubt that this soldier is Isaac E. Raborn. Bear in mind that script "I's" and script "J.'s" in the ORIGINAL records are often confused.] [***Death year taken from VA headstone application, filed by his grandson, Wood Alexander, 1931.]
