Forbes
Bivouac was an association of Confederate Veterans who resided in the
Clarksville area. The first members
"registered" January 30, 1888, and the last around 1915.
Over the years there were 281 members. Forbes
Bivouac was
one of many local organizations affiliated through the United
Confederate
Veterans.
In 1977, a roster
of members
was published in The Montgomery County
Genealogical Journal,
published by Ann Evans Alley. The
source of the information was a notebook, "Contributed by William H.
Shelton
of
Clarksville, Tennessee. The original
notebook belonged to Mr.
Shelton's
father-in-law, Collier
Goodlett, Sr. of Clarksville, Tenn."
The information
in the
notebook varies from entry to entry, but generally
includes the following:
Name
Date of
registration
Date of enlistment
Rank at
enlistment, Company
and Regiment
Date and place of
birth
City and County
of residence
Number of times
wounded
Place of capture
Date released
Date of parole
Rank at close of
war
Date and place of
death
Not all
information is
complete for each entry. A few are
almost entirely
blank. The entries are in order by date of
registration, with a serial
number assigned to each
entry. The serial number may have been
a member
number.
Below is an index
to that
roster by member name. The index
includes key
information to allow a
researcher to identify a member (name, date and place of birth, rank,
Company and
Regiment, member number) and find the detailed entry in the source
material.
The
roster was published in
the following issues:
March, 1977,
Volume VI,
Number 3, pages 83-89, members 1-70
June, 1977,
Volume VI,
Number 4, pages 116-122, members 71-147
September, 1977,
Volume VII,
Number 1, pages 19-24, members 148-210
December, 1977,
Volume VII,

Copies of the
Montgomery
County Genealogical Journal are available at
libraries.
