Fought for the Conferate States of America
Company G, 84th Infantry
W.A. Ensor, Co. "G". Enrolled December 22 from Putnam County. Consolidated with "A" to form "E" of 28th Consolidated.
Buried Joseph Jared  Cemetery - Low Gap
The W.A. Ensor, TN, 84th Infantry, Company G, Captain was William Asbury
Ensor from Putnam County, TN.  William Asbury Ensor organized a group of
volunteers and was "elected" Captain.  It may be interesting to know that William Asbury Ensor was not a slave owner.
The 84th was at the Battle of Shiloh
General Donelson, in his report of the battle, stated: "The 84th, being a new and very small regiment, was assigned to my command December 29, 1862, only two days before the battle. I deemed it best to leave it in the rear in support of Carnes' Battery. Colonel Stanton's Regiment was not seriously engaged, though I do not doubt, if an opportunity had presented itself, that both he and his men would have fought most gallantly."
