    Notes:

    "Biographical Register of the CONFEDERATE CONGRESS" by Ezra J. Warner and W.
    Buck Yeams, Louisiana State Univ. Press.

    PETER SINGLETON WILKES (Missouri), according to the record of his enlistment
    as a private in the 3rd Missour Calvary (Confed.), was born in Maury Co., TN.
    His grave maker in Rural Cem. Stockton, CA., states that the year of birth
    was 1827. Almost nothing reliable of veriable has been written about his
    antebellum career. According to an obiturary in the Jefferson City, MO. State
    Tribune, he was graduated from college in Missiouri in 1852, and a week
    afterward was elected to the state legislature. The second statement is
    demonstrable false, and the first can not be verified.
    He is usually described as a "Sprinfield Lawyer" However, his name cannot be
    found in the 1860 census of Greene Co., MO., nor in any of the surrounding
    counties. He gave his occupation as "lawyer" when he inlisted in the 3rd.
    Missouri on 2 Jan., 1862. According to his obituary in Stockton, CA., Record,
    he served in the commissary department and somehow acquired the honorific of
    "Colonel", by which he was known in later life. Presumably while still
    serving in the army, he was elected by the soldier and refugee vote to the
    2nd. Regular Confederate Congress in May, 1864 and took his seat on Nov. 8th.
    (his opponent for this seat was Thomas W. Freeman).

    Wilkes greatly admired President Jefferson Davis and in the last desperate
    months of the Confederacy centered his attention on giving him every power
    that a commander-in-chief might need. His sole reservation was his
    unexplanined refusal to draft and arm slaves. Thie ridgid Missouri "Test
    Oath" drove him from the state at the end of the war, and he made his way to
    California, some say by way of Mazatlan, Mexico, where he may have tarried for
    some years. Upon his arrival in Stockton, CA., which was to be his permanent
    home, Wilkes formed a law partnership with the celebrated former Chief Justice
    David S. Terry of the California Supremen Court. Like Wilkes, Terry was a
    former Confederate; his exploits included killing a United States Senator and
    some years later being killed himself by the bidyguard of United States
    Supreme Court Justice Stephen J. Field, who he threatened with violence.
    Wilkes died in Stockton on January 2, 1900, and was buried there.
