Maxwell(*)
Caswell F. Maxwell Jr.
Private - enlisted in the 9th Calvalry, 121st Regiment, Company L of the Indiana Volunteers. He entered the service on December 8, 1863 in Indianapolis, Indiana by Captain Moorhouse. He mustered in on January 7, 1864 in Indianapolis by Captain Locke. He deserted on November 20, 1864. I don't know why he deserted, nor do I care. We can only guess what must have went through the minds of these men who fought brother against brother and cousin against cousin. I have found this so many times in my genealogy research. I have had the same families fighting for both North and South. By this time in the war, Caswell had left behind a wife and 5 small children to take care of, I assume, by her self. Also, a brother who was killed in January of that same year. I know that his obituary by his family, said that he was a good soldier, so that is good enough for me.
