Events
1. Military Service, The Civil War in MO
The man in his Confederate Uniform is Grandpa Chiles father, Richard Ballinger Chiles. I have an idea he changed sides or his sympathies while fighting. He came home in a Union Uniform--that is the one Mae Ross had and it was given to Chuck Holcomb. Also--he died of war wounds and was buried in the Chiles family plot--but doesn't have a stone. His wife was buried there later--and she has a stone. Captain Enyart was wealthy and was raising their 2 boys---so why didn't the old tightwad buy his brother-in-law and friend a stone?? I think it was because the brother-in-law saw that the South was wrong about slavery. When he came home and the "Mammy" saw him coming down the lane--she shouted "Massas home!!" and raced down the lane to greet him, outrunning the wife and 4 kids. She was tickled that he was home. When she got her freedom, she didn't want to leave them--so they gave her her house and little plot of ground to go with it and she stayed right there, living beside them.2. Sibling
Brother to Lucy Ann Chiles, wife of Captain Logan Enyart. The Enyart brother (Logan) and sister (Permelia) married the Chiles brother (Richard Ballinger) and sister (Lucy Ann).

1st Cavalry Regiment was formed during summer of 1861. Many of its members had
served with the Missouri State Guard. The unit fought at Elkhorn Tavern, then
moved east of the Mississippi River and was dismounted. After fighting at Iuka
and Corinth, it was assigned to M.E. Green's Brigade, Department of Mississippi
and East Louisiana. It took an active part in the fight at Big Black River Bridge
and on July 4, 1863, was captured at Vicksburg . After the exchange it was assigned
to General Cockrell's Brigade, and consolidated with the 3rd (Samuel's) Missouri
Cavalry Battalion. It fought with the Army of Tennessee throughout the Atlanta
Campaign and was part of Hood's operations in Tennessee. Later it was involved
in the defense of Mobile. On May 4, 1862, the regiment contained 536 effectives
and lost 9 killed and 54 wounded at Corinth. The 1st/3rd Battalion reported 25
killed, 80 wounded, and 3 missing during the Atlanta Campaign and sustained 56

Notes
General:
Richard B. Chiles was the first of the Chiles family to arrive in Jackson County, Missouri from Clark County, Kentucky. We do not know the exact date of his arrival but it was most likely before Jackson was made a county. Richard was appointed Jackson County Assessor in 1827. He ran for sheriff in the General Election of 1828 and on 7 August 1832, he was appointed a county judge. It is believed that his early death was due to Cholera. His weakened condition made it necessary for his brother, Joel Franklin Chiles to hand write his will. Richard's signature on this document is very weak. The will was probated on 14 December 1835. He was buried on his farm in a grave marked only by a field stone. In that day victems of Cholera were buried in unmarked graves.
The following month Mary Ann Chiles, wife of Joseph Ballinger Chiles, also died leaving four small children.

Notes
General:
According to family lore, Richard was hung in the family farm's barn by the Home Guard. He was a young teenager.
He was cut down by their colored Mammy the minute the Home Guard rode out of the homestead and he survived the hanging. The tale goes on that he chose not to participate in the Confederacy, therefore was hung as a traitor.
Richard and his brother, Logan Wiley, were raised by Capt. Logan and Lucy(Chiles) Enyart after the early death of their parents, Richard Ballinger Chiles and Permelia Enyart Chiles. Young Richard E. was thought to be a wild, incorrigible, At the time of this writing, not much is known about him or his sisters, Lucy & Emily. KT 1-5-05
