William H. Maltby

In 1860-61 he was connected with his brother, H. A. Maltby, in the publication of the Ranchero, a small weekly paper.

He consequently became a member of Capt. B. F. Neal's Artillery Company, C. S. A., and was elected first lieutenant, afterwards becoming Captain of the company.

With a number of others he was captured by the Federal forces of Mustang Island, taken to New Orleans, released through the influence of his brother, Gen. Jasper A. Maltby, and went to Vicksburg, where he remained until an exchange of prisoners was effected.

Returning to this point he resumed the publication with his brother of the Ranchero at Santa Margarita on the Nueces.
