James Taber1812 - 1902

James Taber's age is listed as "44," however he was "50" years old. Although he wasn't in a priority class to be drafted and was in Class II = "all other persons subject to military duty," It is curious that he would allow his age to be misrepresented as a younger age would still be more likely to subject him to the draft.
