I came across this listing for a John J. Jaudon when researching more about my relative. The John J. Jaudon mentioned here, claiming to be buried in Grave #1137 is NOT correct. I have no doubt that the John J. Jaudon that died in the 1960's is related to me, probably thru Isaac Jaudon's second marriage to Martha Mitchell, but I have not done enough research into that marriage. If it were the same person actually buried at Rock Island, he would have been over 120 years old. My families JOHN J. JAUDON is the one buried at Grave #1137 in Rock Island Confederate Cemetery in Illinois. My John J. Jaudon, born about 1844, was the second son of Samuel B. Jaudon, my great-great-grandfather. Samuel B. Jaudon's first son was my great-grandfather, Isaac P. Jaudon and he was the only child during Samuel B.'s first marriage to Ruth McDow. After his mother died in 1840, Samuel B. sent Isaac P. from SC to MS to live with his brother, Paul Leonard in Monroe Co., MS. Samuel B. Jaudon moved to Attala Co., MS and married Elizabeth Sanders. They had four children, the first of which was John J. Jaudon. The JOHN J. JAUDON buried at Rock Island, listed as being 6 yrs old in the 1850 Census, was just `16 when he enlisted as a private in Captain E.C. Postell's Co. E, 24th MS Infantry on September 15, 1861, in Madison Co., MS. He was captured at Lookout Mountain, Chattanooga, TN on November 24, 1864, and was forwarded to Rock Island Barracks, Illinois on Debember 3, 1863, arriving two days later. As a POW, he died of Pnomonia May 10, 1863 and was buried in Grave #1137. So, my John J. Jaudon enlisted ten days after his father, Samuel B. Jaudon in September 1861. His father, Samuel B. enlisted in Captain Thomas Coopwood's Co. (Monroe Rangers*) on September 5, 1861 at Aberdeen, Madison Co., MS and was subsequently transferred to Co. E, sent home in Novemeber 1862 by order of surgeon "by reason of old age", died April 16, 1863 at Fair Ground Hospital No. 1, in Atlanta, GA and was buried at Oakland Confederate Cemetery in Atlanta, GA. *This Company eventually became Company L, 24th MS Infantry. The sad part is that both men were buried far from theirfamilies, in strange cities, far from their MS roots. One as a 20 year old, the other as an old man. My grandfather, Isaac P. Jaudon went on to marry Polly Anne Pope in 1850 and went on to have 9 children. One of those 9 was my grandfather, John Wesley Jaudon who married Nannie Caroline Darby and had 13 children. My father was #12. Samuel B. Jaudon's father, Isaac Jaudon, whom I affectionately call "Old Isaac" was my great-great-great-grandfather amd was listed on a Memorial called The Honor Roll of Soldiers and Patriots of the American Revolution (1775-1783) in Tuscaloosa, AL.
