Served in Co. G, 18th Ohio Volunteer Infantry
∼Joseph B. Sanders, was born in 1834 in Jackson County, Alabama, the son of Joseph Sanders and Martha Sanders. His parents were from Randolph County, North Carolina, and had moved to Jackson County in the early 1830s. Like his father and many of his other relatives, when the Civil War began, his sympathies were with the Union forces.
He served as a corporal in Company G., 18th Ohio Volunteers. He died near Murfreesboro in Tennessee while serving with the Union forces. His half-brothers, Henry A. Sanders and John G. Sanders, also fought on the Union side but survived the war, as did Joseph's father-in-law, John Sanders, who left Alabama to serve in an Ohio unit. Joseph B. Sanders' seventy-year old father, also named Joseph Sanders, was killed back home in Alabama by pro-Confederate bushwhackers two months after Joseph B. Sanders' death.
From Don Schaefer, editor of Sanders Siftings, October 2007:
I did not find a date for the marriage of Joseph B. Sanders and his first wife, Mary E. Davis. I got the name of his first wife from a petition filed by John Sanders, father of Mary Ann Sanders, second wife of Joseph B., when John was trying to get the land for Joseph B. G. Sanders that was his because of his mother's first marriage. This was on pages 533-34 of Will Book "N" in Jackson County, Alabama. In this petition it is stated that Joseph B. Sanders and Mary, his wife, had one child, B. G. Sanders, and Mary died leaving the child as her heir at law. Then the child died leaving Joseph B. Sanders his heir at law. Then, since that time Joseph B. Sanders intermarried with a Mary A. Sanders, etc. I have all those dates - marriage and birth of Joseph B. G. Sanders- in the pension application file of Mary A. Washburn, widow of Joseph B. Sanders. Mary was still living in June of 1876 in Indiana when the pension was denied. It is interesting, that in this pension file, John Sanders (the boy's grandfather), requested and receiving the guardianship of Joseph B. G. Sanders on 30 December 1972. On 6 May 1875 Mary A. Washburn of Marshall County, Indiana applied for and received the guardianship of Joseph B. G. Sanders.
The memorial has a death date of February 27, 1864, but other sources say he died on February 12, 1863.
