Below is the story told by Frances Clementine Caddell Tanner, daughter of Robert Admiral Caddell and granddaughter of William Iverson Caddell:
"William Iverson Caddell and brother George were both wounded in the Civil War. W. I. was wounded eleven times at the Battle of Gettysburg and was carried off the battlefield for dead. However, he survived and was wounded again in the Battle at Charles Town, W. Va. He was hospitalized and confined in Maryland until the end of the war. Then he was released and put into a Union uniform. Once he got past the Mason-Dixon Line, nobody would give him food and he almost starved to death before he got home.
The side of his face was shot away and he wore a full beard to cover it. It never completely healed. The state of N.C. passed a law exempting him from paying a peddler's tax. He spent his later days in Charlotte, N.C. with daughter Salome.
George K. Caddell had been confined at Point Lookout, Maryland one and one-half months before W. I. was confined there. George's left leg was amputated. According to Frances's son Ben, George moved to Sumter, S.C."
