Ardoin, Elie, Pvt. Co. K. 28th (Thomas') La. Infty. En. St. Landry, La., May 5th, 1862. Roll to June 30th, 1862, "Absent, in Hospl. Since June 23rd, 1862." Roll for Sept. and Oct., 1862, "Discharged by Order of Gen. Bragg. Oct. 22nd, 1862." Additional Data: (1 September 2000) Information regarding Elie Ardoin -- Eli got sick right away, was discharged and missed out on the Vicksburg fun. However, my grandfather [grandfather of David White] told me that Eli's two month active experience in the army soured him on the war and he hid out from Confederate authorities for the rest of the war. An interesting possible confirmation of this family legend is that in the Official Records there is a report of a conscriptor in St Landry Parish telling of how he was attacked by anti-war people who resided in a heavily wooded portion of the parish including a "----- Ardoin." Could this have been Eli? I suspect it was. The following is a list of events with regards to Elie Ardoin:

May 5, 1862 -- enlisted in St. Landry Parish by Lt. Octave Fontenot for the war and sent to Camp Moore for training.
May 20, 1862 -- departed Camp Moore for Vicksburg.
May 21, 1862 -- arrived in Vicksburg and posted to picket duty at Warrenton, MS.
June 24, 1862 -- sent to General Hospital at Mississippi Springs just east of Raymond, MS near Jackson.
July-September 1862 -- Absent from duty still in the hospital.
October 22, 1862 -- Discharged at Vicksburg by [General] Braxton Bragg.

March 24, 1863 His former company commander wrote this letter:

Vicksburg, Miss, Mar, 24th, 1863
I Octave Fontenot, 2d Lieut. Co. K, (Col Thomas) 28th La. Regiment hereby certify on honor that Private Elie Ardoin of my company drew his bounty from Col. Allen Thomas, by the hands of his agent Capt. John F. Gardner. Said Elie Ardoin was discharged at this place 22nd October 1862.

Vidrine, Aurelie, (also Videwes, Oreuli), Pvt. Co. K, 28th (Thomas') La. Inf. En. St. Landry, April 6, 1862. Present on all Rolls to Feb., 1863. Federal Rolls of Prisoners of War, Captured and paroled at Vicksburg, Miss., July 4, 1863. Roll of Prisoners of War, C. S. A., Paroled Washington, La., June 19, 1865. Res. St. Landry Par., La.
Civilian Data: (9 September 2000) Aurelie Vidrine was born in 1843. His occupation was that of a farmer. He was married twice and a total of sixteen children were born to these two marriages. His first wife was Zoe FUSILIER with whom he fathered 11 children. Six lived to adulthood. They were -- Dr. Julius C. Vidrine (the village of Vidrine was named after him), Remi Vidrine (one time mayor of Oakdale, Louisiana), Bercham (Butch) Vidrine, Octave Vidrine, Eva Vidrine and Zoe Vidrine. After Zoe Fusilier's death, Aurelie married Louisiana (Lou) SINGLETARY. The children of this union were -- Kirby Lee Vidrine Sr., (grandfather to submitter John Randolph [Randy] Vidrine), Hamilton Aurelie Vidrine, Faye Vidrine, Maye Vidrine, and Joyce Vidrine. Aurelie Vidrine was 18 or 19 when he enlisted into Co. K., Thomas' 28th Louisiana Infantry Regiment. He once told the grandfather [of the submitter] of incidents that occured during the siege of Vicksburg. One is that soldiers took turns going to a stream to fill canteens. This was done under sniper fire and occasionally ended with the wounding or death of a soldier. He also told of an incident in a battle where he moved from one tree to another after a 14 year old boy took shelter behind the one he was behind. Afterwards looking back he saw a cannon ball strike the tree and kill the boy. He was a farmer and built up his land holdings to a respectable level. He sold a herd of cattle in order to pay the entire tuition and cost of sending his son Julius (Jules) C. Vidrine to the Medical School at Louisville, Kentucky. He and his great grandson, John Randolph (Randy) Vidrine lived almost 100 years apart and a lot of their lives parallel, including: birthdate, military service, marriage, and the birth dates of their oldest children. Aurelie survived the war and passed away in 1914. His final resting place is at the old cemetery in Ville Platte, Evangeline Parish, Louisiana. According to records, there is an application for Confederate Widow's benefits on file for a Lou Singletary, the second wife of Aurelie.
Additional Information: The burial site of Aurelie Vidrine is located about 25-ft. from the burial site of Emile Latour of the same company. Both men have CSA headstones marking their final resting place. Source, descendant Randy Vidrine.
