It has been said that Rusk Co. had more men that enlisted in the Civil War
than any other county in Texas. The first company that was organized in Rusk
Co. was the Boggess company which was put together on Jan. 29, 1861, after
the South's secession from the United States. The Texas troops were not
required at first, but on April 6, 1861, the Boggess Co. was reorganized.
James Foy had an interesting life...
His brother, cousins and in=laws all enlisted in
Border's regiment....One went off chasing deserters and
stayed until war over....James Foy's and Thomas W.,s father
enlisted at 70years with the 2nd cav.
