When the 71st EMM was mustered out, Henry Neill became the Colonel of the 5th (Provisional) EMM.

Dr. Thomas Jefferson Wright, my great grandfather, was in the Confederate Army Medical section, his two younger brothers also served in Confederate Army;
George William Wright, was captured and was imprisoned at Camp Morton in Indiana. Indiana. And James Huff Wright, he served in Frank Cockrell's company. They were from Post Oak Twsp., in Johnson County. At the end of the Civil War a newspaper article appeared in the Warrensburg paper, listing the Confederate veterans who would be returning to their homes in Johnson County, It very pointedly informed them that they would not be welcome. The names of Thomas Jefferson Wright and James Huff Wright were on that list. Frank H Slaven Mesa, Arizona
