"'The Lowman Families of Burke County, NC,' pp.225, Morganton Library, Morganton, NC.
'In 1858, Sylvanus bought fifty acres of land from his uncle Abraham Yount. The land was located on the middle prong of Bridge Creek at the base of Chestnut Mountain, one-half mile off the present day Hwy. 350, south of Valdese. Sylvanus and Jane first built a log cabin and later a two-story house with wood siding. They remained on this land, reared their family, enlarged their holdings and became respected citizens of the community..
Sylvanus enlisted in the Confederate Army on 01 June, 1863 and in 1864 when many soldiers deserted, he was one of them. After being arrested and returned to active duty, he fought and was wounded by a mini ball to the right thigh in a battle near Petersburg, Va. Released from the hospital, he was on leave when the war ended.'

"The information contained in the following roster was compiled from a company muster-in roll dated October 29, 1861, and from company muster rolls for January-April, 1862, and November, 1864-February, 1865. No company muster rolls were found for October 15, 1861-December 31, 1861; May, 1862-October, 1864; and March-April, 1865. Valuable information was obtained from primary sources such as the North Carolina adjutant general's Roll of Honor, discharge certificates, medical records, prisoner of war records, pension applications, and Civil War newspapers. Secondary sources such as postwar rosters and histories, cemetery records, and records of the United Daughters of the Confederacy also provided useful information.
