5. JOHN³ SATTERFIELD (JAMES², ROBERT¹) was born 1838 in SC, and died March 06, 1865 in Camp Chase, Ohio. He married MALINDA CAROLINE SPURLIN November 22, 1856 in Union Co., GA, daughter of ANDREW SPURLIN and MATILDA LNU. She was born 1838 in SC/GA, and died March 1926 in Haywood Co., NC.

Notes for JOHN SATTERFIELD:
1860 Census, Union County, Georgia: Satafield, John, 23, SC; Caroline, 22, SC; Georgia Ann, 2, GA; Rachel, 7 mos, GA.

The first military draft was enacted by the Confederate Government on April 16, 1862. Under the Conscription Act, all healthy white men between the ages of 18 and 35 were liable for a three year term of service. The governor of Georgia was opposed to the draft and many Georgians were exempted from the draft by their enlistment in state militias. Eventhough Caroline was seven months pregnant with a son who would become John C. Satterfield, her husband, John Satterfield, along with his brother Thomas Satterfield, maybe to avoid the draft, enlisted at Blairsville, Georgia on 8 May 1862 with Co. D, 1st Regiment, Georgia Partisan Rangers which was commanded by Captain John C. Fain. This organization was one of the companies of the Cavalry Battalion, Smith's Legion, Georgia Volunteers which became the 6th Regiment, Georgia Cavalry in March 1863. This Company became Co. B of that Regiment. John was captured at Chattooga County, Georgia on January 13, 1865 and sent to Louisville, Ky., and then to Camp Chase, Ohio (near Columbus, Ohio). John died at Camp Chase on March 6, 1865 from the effects of pneumonia. He is buried at grave number 1568. When contacted, the officials at Camp Chase stated that soldiers were buried daily and nobody really knew who was buried where. It is very possible that the soldier buried in grave number 1568 is not John Satterfield and it is also very possible that there is no soldier buried at grave 1568. The cemetery has undergone many changes over the years and the officials told me that the grave markers were more a memorial to the individual soldier rather than a difinitive resting place.

Caroline brought the following story with her to Haywood County. When her brother-in-law James Satterfield returned home from the war he told the family that he and his brother John were headed home when they were stopped in West Virginia by a group of men. James and John were ordered to raise their arms and then the men demanded they dismount and turn over their horses. When John refused he was shot and killed. James buried his brother in West Virginia and then continued his journey home. Caroline was steadfast in her belief of this story but, according to James's military record, he was captured in July 1864 and sent to Camp Douglas, Illinois, where he remained until April 1865. He applied for the Oath of Allegiance in December 1864 and was then mustered into the 5th U.S. Volunteer Infantry on April 15, 1865. James was in the hospital at Camp Douglas, Illinois on March 12, 1865 and again on March 31, 1865. How did he know his brother had died? Why did he come home with the story of John being shot and killed?

Notes for MALINDA CAROLINE SPURLIN:
1870 Census, Union County, Georgia, Blairsville Dist., # 118: Satterfield, Caroline, 32, farmer, GA; Georgia A., 13, GA; Rachel E., 11, GA; Jackson V., 9, GA; John C., 8, GA.

1880 Census, Union County, Georgia, Gum Log Dist., # 256: Bowlin, Richard, 60, SC/SC/SC; Caroline, 42, NC/NC/NC; Jackson (Satterfield), 20, GA/SC/NC.

Caroline can be found in the 1900 and 1920 Haywood County, NC census living with her son-in-law and daughter, Iven and Georgia Ann Satterfield Smathers. Aunt Lula Smathers Rabb told the story that Dick Bolin brought Caroline to Haywood County to visit with her family while he went away to care for some family business. At the conclusion of his business he was to return to Haywood County, get Caroline, and return to Blairsville, Georgia. Dick never came back and Caroline lived with Georgia Ann and Rachel until she died.
