Misc. Notes
David Brumley enlisted as a Private in Company E, 16th Alabama Infantry. Mustered in near Knoxville, Tennessee, under General Zollicoffer. He was slightly wounded in right arm at Shiloh. Was in the battle of Perryville, Kentucky, Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and Chickamauga. Was furloughed near Fayette, Georgia, after the Battle of Chickamauga.

His two brothers, Barton and Riley, served in the Union army with the 1st Alabama Calvary.

David Brumley married Elizabeth Scott who had four brothers and three brothers-in-law who all fought for the Union while David joined the Confederate Army. David's brothers were also Union soldiers. When David came home on a furlough from the war, Elizabeth was very ill. She knew she was dying and asked David to leave their two little daughters with her parents to raise after she died. He agreed and did as she asked. After the war, he left for Tennessee taking only the family Bible with him saying good-by to his two little daughters. Elizabeth, his wife, was placed in an unmarked grave because there was no money for headstones.
