* It appears to me that Ann Carrico (in household #1368) was visiting parents and then, a few days later was enumerated again in household #1388) with her husband, Josiah Pauley, and her sister, Elizabeth, was visiting.
* Josiah B. Pauley enlisted as a private for the Virginia army , age 40. Enlist date 5/27/1861 in Wytheville VA, survived. Company B, sick on 7/61, promoted sgt. 1/62, captured Piedmont 6/5/64, POW Johnson's Island, listed as Lt. on POW records, released 6/15/65, 5' 9" tall, hazel eyes, dark hair.
* Another thing of interest that might connect Josiah to two others, Albert G. Pauley, company F, ag ?? in 1850, enlisted 5/29/61 at Wytheville, captured 1/1/62, received clothing 3rd. and 4th. quarter 1864.

* 1880 Wythe Co., VA Census (pg. 22 - Speedwell Township) household 185/194
Shupe, James age 27 head
, Arilla age 23 wife
, Mary J. age 4 daughter
, Stephen W. age 2 son
Pauley, Ann age 53 mother-in-law.
* I have not found Ann F. Carrico Pauley in the 1890 census. I figure she must have died between 1880-1890.
* I have not found Josiah Pauley after to 1860 Census, so I'm assuming he died after being released from the POW prison on Johnson's Island but died before 1870.
* I do have in my possession a certificate from Johnson's Island Prisoner of War Depot that state's Josiah B. Pauley was recorded as a Prisoner of War at the Johnson's Island Prisoner of War Depot located in Sandusky Bay, Lake Erie, Ohio. Also states he was a 2nd. Lieut. I feel sure he was one of 1,000 prisoner's (60 were officers) captured at the Battle of Piedmont.
