May 23, 1826), (5) Daniel Monroe (b. January 9, 1828), (6) Joel (b. April 12, 1830), (7) twin Jonathan H. (b. May 12, 1830), (8) Kinchen Stokes (b. June 27, 1832), (9) D. Ivy (b. May 12, 1834), and (10) Mary Ann (b. June 7, 1836)

After extensive research, Kinchen Stokes Miscenheimer is believed by some Texas descendants (to be the "R." S. Meisenheimer (sp) listed in Civil War Archives who served in Company C, 3rd Texas Infantry Regiment, CSA.
Summary of research:
1) Kitchen Stokes Miscenheimer's birth year/age matches that of "R." S. Meisenheimer from above-referenced unit. [Note: "R." S. Meisenheimer was actually a "conscript" - if so, why did he not join up as did his brothers? Did recruiters incorrectly show his name on purpose?]
2) Birth location (North Carolina), match exactly those of the "R." S. Meisenheimer on Civil War muster rolls.
3) "K"inchen was in same location at the same time. Enlistment (consription) location - Caldwell County, Texas - match exactly those of the "R." S. Meisenheimer on Civil War muster rolls.
4) Other "Misenheimer" men (brothers) signed up in same county - it seems highly likely there would have been the pressure to do so on other family members (even as a conscript, he went...)
5) There was no other man even remotely-close to having the same specific data as the two people (in family or service records) ANYWHERE IN TEXAS.
As of June 24, 2015: Texas ancestor Kinchen Stokes Miscenheimer and "R." S. Meisenheimer are believed (by MCB III) to be the same person. If not, then who is the "R." S. Meisenheimer listed in Civil War muster rolls?
One theory: somewhere the fancy letter "K" (perhaps when Kinchen signed-up?) was mistaken for (in muster rolls) as an "R."
