Jordan Barnett Lively was born in Spartanburg, South Carolina. He was the third of 10 children born to Anderson Lively and Mary Elizabeth Bryant Lively. By 1854 the family had moved to Izard County, Arkansas. Anderson was deceased prior to 1860 and the 1860 census in Izard County lists Mary Elizabeth as the head of household. Jordan and his older brother (Carter) enlisted in the Confederate Army. On February 28, 1863 Jordan is listed as "sick at home". Carter died in the Civil War but Jordan eventually left Arkansas and brought his mother, brothers and sisters to Milam County where they are all found in the 1870 census.
