Ga. Hoxey's Batt'n Wiley T. High was a Private in Capt Evan's Co. Cadet Riflemen, Hoxey's Batt'n Georgia No age given but I think he was born about 1816 in Ga. Appears on the Co. Muster Out Roll, dated Columbus, Sept 2 1836 which is his muster out date. Wiley enrolled June 1 1836 from Columbus Ga. His muster in date was May 9, 1836. He was in service 3 months 22 day. There is a notation from the record and Pension Office of the War Dept dated Washington Nov. 15th 1893 that certifies that this man is regarded by this department as having been in the service of the United States from May 9, 1836 from which day paid. His wife would have been dead before 1893 so I doubt if she ever got a pension. Wiley lived in Jasper County until 1850 census, then moved to Atlanta. They had a son there 1851.Before the family move to Ala. Had a son in Miss on their way to Texas). He died after 1855 somewhere in Ala or Miss. His wife, Mary Elizabeth Duke High was in Texas with their children by 1860. She later moves to the Crockett , Houston County area with several of her children and she dies in that county.
