Joseph William Quaintance1

b. 29 August 1840, d. 28 August 1863
Joseph W. Quaintance
     Joseph William Quaintance was also known as W. H. Quaintance This is the name that is on the tombstone in Mercersburg, and a newspaper article quoted in the source is signed "Mrs. W. H. Quaintance". However, other letters exchanged with people in Mercersburg indicate his name as "Joseph".1 He was born on 29 August 1840 in Rappahannock County, Virginia.1 He was the son of Henry Harford Quaintance and Sarah Frances Snyder.2 Joseph William Quaintance was in military service in the Civil War, on the Confederate side between 1861 and 1863. He was a Private in Company C of the 4th Virginia Cavalry Regiment under the command of General Fitzhugh Lee, who was in turn under command by General J.E.B. Stuart.1,3,4 He married Savilla House on 28 March 1862 in Culpeper Courthouse, Culpeper County, Virginia.4 Joseph William Quaintance died on 28 August 1863 in Mercersburg, Pennsylvania, at age 22. He died of wounds received 30 June 1863 near Hanover, Pennsylvania, a day or two before Gettysburg.1,3,4 He was buried in Mercersburg Cemetery, Mercersburg, Pennsylvania. He was buried along with two other Confederates. The cemetery marker shows "W. H. Quaintance", but copies of letters pertaining to his death (see source) clearly show him as Joseph. It is possible that his name, J.W. Quaintance, was confused with his father's, H. H. Quaintance.5,4
