1 Dr. John Q. Anderson, "Anderson" (an unpublished preliminary family history) (College Station, Texas, December, 1959), Information from Civil War Pension Application. Dr. John Q. Anderson was a son of Albert Slayton Anderson and a grandson of Green Berry Anderson. In December, 1959, Dr. Anderson, a professor at Texas A & M, wrote a preliminary family history for our Anderson family. It is a combination of family stories and family data. Since he was an accomplished scholar in the fields of english, history and folklore and since he wrote this history at a time when the events were closer in time and could be remembered by older family members, I generally defer to his data concerning names, dates and places. The stories, however, particularly the older ones, were probably not intended by Dr. Anderson to be factual. They are what they are -- memories -- which often wander from the facts as they are passed down from one generation to another. As a folklorist, Dr. Anderson knew the importance of recording the memories without regard to their factual accuracy. Dr. Anderson died February 1975. I am indebted to Helen Hill for sharing his work with me.

10 Dr. John Q. Anderson, "Anderson" (an unpublished preliminary family history) (College Station, Texas, December, 1959), Information from Civil War Pension Application. The pension application states he was born in Shelbyville, Lincoln Co., TN. This is unlikely. Shelbyville is in Bedford Co., TN. Since the Anderson family lived in the Booneville-Mulberry area of Lincoln County, near the Bedford County line, perhaps Shelbyville was identified because it was a nearby town, although Fayetteville in Lincoln County would seem the more likely town to serve as a reference point.
