Re H.P. Pointer buried in Rose Hill Maury County. There was an article on his 1885 house back in
September. It was being moved. His name was Henry and he was captured at Fort Donelson in Feb 1862. They sent him to Johnson's Island Sandusky OH. He was exchanged and went to work as a staff officer for Nathan Bedford Forrest. He was wounded several times, once near Memphis. He often
negotiated under a flag of truce for the surrender of some of Forrest's opponents in the War. My Pointers
and his are descended from Samuel Pointer Sr. of Halifax Co VA, who was born in 1752 and fought
in the Revolution. The article was in the Tennessean. Terry Baker
==========================
Spring Hill, June 29 -- After a long and painful illness, Capt H. P. Pointer peacefully departed this life at his home near here on Thursday June 23. A large concourse of relatives and friends gathered to pay the last tribute of respect to all that remained of that noble, generous and intellectual man. He was indeed one of these characters by whose life the world has been better...
The funeral services were held at the residence, by Rev. C. E. Sullivan officiating. The remains were interred at the Caldwell place near Spring Hill. -- Columbia Herald, 1 July 1892.
(Note: He appears to have been moved and reinterred at Rose Hill.)
