William B. Searcy's name appears on the widow pension application of Mrs. Kitty
Adeline Ownbey, as living in Bat Cave, North Carolina, on 13 July 1885. He
served in the Civil War in Company C, 60th Regiment, North Carolina. He buried
Caleb Ownbey on Missionary Ridge, in Tennessee. Therefore could serve as a
witness to his death.

William was captured some months later and taken to a prisoner of war camp in
Ohio where they offered him his freedom to go to Kansas to help gather the
wheat harvest. He collected a pension from the Union and Confederates until he
died.
