James A Beeks
March 11 1841

James A. Beeks, about age 20, enlisted in 1861 in Captain S.A. Gholston’s company of Monroe County volunteers. This company became Company I of the 14th Mississippi Infantry. James was captured at Fort Donaldson in 1862 and shipped to Camp Douglas in Illinois. He remained at this prisoner of war camp until September of 1862 when he and the regiment was shipped back to Vicksburg for parole and exchange which occurred on October 7, 1862. In 1863 he was present for musters at Newton Station, Mississippi and Canton, Mississippi. On December 4, 1863 on furlough at home. He returned to duty and served in operation around Mississippi until the regiment was ordered to Demopolis in the Spring of 1864. The 14th was a part of Loring Division was ordered to Georgia to reinforce Johnston in front of a large Union army in northern Georgia. James’s name appears on a roster of soldiers due a bounty that was dated April 1, 1864 in Demopolis, Alabama. The next day the regiment set out on a march to Montevallo, Alabama. James is reported as deserting on April 4 while on this march. There are no other records.
