This is the finest Hardee battle flag (blue field with white ellipse) in existence. In 1863, the troops of Cleburne's Division had resisted instructions to replace their blue Hardee flags with the standard red Confederate battle flag. The division, however, had won such an outstanding reputation as fighters that army commanders allowed them to retain their distinctive flags for the rest of the war -- the only command in the Army of Tennessee so honored.
In November of 1863, the 17th and 18th Texas received its new flannel Hardee flag inscribed with the battle honors of the previous campaigns: "Arkansas Post," "Chickamauga," "Tunnel Hill," and "Ringgold Gap." During the Atlanta Campaign, Granbury's Texas Brigade (including the 17th and 18th Texas) participated in some of the hardest fighting of the war. On July 22, 1864 at the Battle of Atlanta, while fighting in the Confederate front lines, the 17th and 18 Texas became cut-off, and nearly surrounded, forcing the surrender of a large number of its men. After a brief hand-to-hand struggle, the battle flag was taken by General William T. Clark. After the war, veterans of the 17th and 18th Texas made considerable efforts to locate the flag, which in 1914 was returned to Texas by Gen. Clark's widow.

The Waco Tribune 4-6-1906
Pat Cleburne camp of Confederate Veterans: ... In calling the death roll, the
commander standing, as is their custom, the names of Dr. J.C.J. King, J.C. Robertson, W.L. Carter and J.R. Bennett were read, all of whom passed away since the regular meeting of the previous month. ...

Brief obit. appeared in Waco paper. Is he buried in Old East Waco Cem. (Greenwood?? I think he may be buried in the same lot as his daughter Mary Ellen Coates in Waco. No proof, but think there is an unmarked grave there that at one time had a Confederate metal marker (no name) on it. Found Frank Crow on the 1920 Waco census, where it says he was a laundry owner. So he probably owned the laundry where Martha worked.

Per a descendant of Willie Wilkes, a daughter of Willie Wilkes stated that she remembered Wm. L. Carter, although she was only 6 at the time. Said he had red hair and a long red beard, that his neck was crooked from a Civil War wound in the neck, that he sat on the porch cocked back in a chair, that he walked along the RR tracks and was hit by a train at some point.

Note:
According to volunteer transcriptions on findagrave.com, the Waco Day newspaper in 1889 listed 22 Confederate veterans in the cemetery, along with five Union veterans and four War of 1812 soldiers. But many of those markers are long gone.
Using Google search on Greenwood Cemetery, there are many results in the history which revealed many graves unmarked, the cemetery was poorly maintained.

Notes on the 18th Texas Calvary:
EIGHTEENTH TEXAS CAVALRY.The Eighteenth Texas Cavalry, also known as Darnell's Cavalry Regiment, was organized at Dallas, Texas, on March 15, 1862. The regiment initially had ten companies lettered A to K comprising men from the counties of Bastrop, Bell, Dallas, Denton, Ellis, Harris, Henderson, Johnson, Travis, and Williamson. Commanding the regiment was Col. Nicholas H. Darnell with field officers Lt. Col. John T. Coit, Maj. Charles C. Morgan, and Maj. William A. Ryan. The regiment was first assigned to duty in the Indian Territory where it became involved in a dispute with that area's commanding officer Gen. Albert Pike. The dispute stemmed from the regiment moving its camp without notifying General Pike. Soon after, the regiment transferred to Arkansas Post, Arkansas, and General Paul O. Hébert recommended dismounting the regiment in July 1862. The regiment fought in the battle of Arkansas Post that started on January 4, 1863, and was captured by Union forces at the conclusion of fighting on January 11. Company H was assigned to the prison camp in Little Rock at the time of the capture.

In April 1863 most of the men serving in the regiment were exchanged and returned to Confederate service. From May 1863 to war's end the Eighteenth Texas Cavalry served in the Army of Tennessee. By July 1863 the Eighteenth Texas Cavalry Regiment was consolidated with the Seventeenth Texas Cavalry Regiment. Additional consolidations throughout the war took place with the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth Texas Cavalry regiments.

The Eighteenth Texas Cavalry took part in more than thirty engagements and battles while serving in the Army of Tennessee. Its most notable battles and campaigns were Chickamauga on September 19-20, 1863; the Chattanooga siege and Chattanooga from September to November 1863; the Atlanta campaign from May to September 1864; Jonesboro from August 31 to September 1, 1864; Franklin on November 30, 1864; Nashville on December 15-16, 1864; the Carolinas campaign from February to April, 1865; and Bentonville on March 19-21, 1865. The Eighteenth Texas Cavalry suffered heavy casualties throughout the war and probably fewer than 125 enlisted men and officers were present at the regiment's surrender on April 26, 1865, at Bennett's House, Durham Station, in North Carolina.

18th Cavalry Regiment was organized at Dallas, Texas, during the spring of 1862 with men from Dallas, Denton, and Belton. The unit was soon dismounted and ordered to Arkansas where in January, 1863, it was captured at Arkansas Post. After being exchanged, it was consolidated with the 17th, 24th, and 25th Texas Cavalry Regiments (dismounted), and placed in Deshler's, J.A. Smith's, and Granbury's Brigade. This command fought with the Army of Tennessee from Chickamauga to Nashville and ended the war in North Carolina. The 18th was organized with about 900 men. The 17th/18th/24th/25th sustained 200 casualties at Chickamauga and totalled 690 men and 520 arms in December, 1863. Very few surrendered on April 26, 1865. The field officers were Colonel Nicholas H. Darnell, Lieutenant Colonel John T. Coit, and Majors Charles C. Morgan and William A. Ryan.

William married Martha A Allison on 9 Apr 1882 in Hill County, Texas. Martha was born in Apr 1865 in Arkansas, USA; died after 1910. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Per son A.T., she died of dropsy. Per same widow, all the Carter sons were hard of hearing and were good-looking, nice people. Son A.T. said she died age 39, but handwritten record said she died 1935. Son A.T. said she was about 5 feet tall (another son said 5'2"-5'3") with dark hair (another son said dark brown) and blue eyes (another son said gray or blue eyes). She had small feet and hands and medium fair skin. None of her children with whom I spoke remembers her ever talking about her father, who died before they were born.
She is buried at Greenwood, Old East Waco cemetery. Was told her funeral was heavily attended because she knew everyone in East Waco and was well liked.

OBIT:
Marvin E. Mangham, 65, of Penrose, Co., passed away Friday, July 13, 2012, at a local hospital.

Marvin "Gene" Mangham, originally from Waco, was born June 2, 1947, to Marvin H. and Roxie Mangham. He attended University High and married his high school sweetheart, Louise Anderson, on Sept. 16, 1966. The couple had two boys, Richard Mangham and William Mangham.

Gene served his county in the US Army for 30 years and during that time earned many commendations including the Meritorious Service Medal with 1st Oak Leaf Cluster, Expert Field Medical Badge, National Defense Service Medal with Bronze Star, Overseas Service Ribbon, Expert Badge (M16 Rifle), Parachutist Badge and many others. Gene's passion for his country was only exceeded by his passion for fishing and hunting. He loved all things outdoors and spent as much time as possible enjoying life.

He is survived by his father, Marvin H. Mangham; four siblings, Sandy Brownlow and husband, Gene, Randy Mangham and wife, Julie, Judy Bessellieu and husband, Les, and Laurie Brown and husband, Allen. He had one granddaughter, Ashley Sigler.
