• Notizen

  Enoch enlisted in 1861 in Co. E. 18th Mississippi Infantry. He transferred on 28 April 1862 to Co. C. 40th Mississippi as 2nd Lt. to serve 3 years. In March 1863 the was promoted to 1st Lt. He was captured at Vicksburg, Mississippi on 4 July 1863 and was exchanged in December 1863. Between 23 August 1863 and 4 October 1863 he was listed as A.W.O.L.. This could have been when he was running for election to the Mississippi State Legislature from Lauderdale County, Mississippi. He lost the election, bur did receive 88 votes. In November he was listed back with the regiment. He was mortally wounded on the night of 30 November 1864 along with his brother Lt. Joseph G.E. Williams. Joseph had a arm shot off and Enoch was shot in the stomach. It was a cold night and around daylight after the battle Enoch and Joseph were found wrapped in each others arms trying to stem the flow of blood from each others wounds before their deaths. It is believed that both were buried together in the same grave on the battlefield. Joseph's identify was not known at during the reburial of the soldiers into the cemetery, so he is probably buried there as an Unknown. There are 565 Unknowns buried in the cemetery. There were six Williams brothers who served in the Confederacy, only one, Columbus Marion Williams, of the 18th Mississippi who had been wounded and captured at Gettysburg survived the war. Sadly, he died of his wound (severe wound of his right leg and gangreen) in 1870.
