  • Notes 
    • JOSEPH CLOYD WYSOR- commonwealth attorney for Pulaski county, Virginia, was born in this county, September 17, 1833. He was a son of Benjamin F. and Harriet Jane (JORDAN) WYSOR, and he married Jennie May, daughter of John and Emma B. (EASTLAND) GARDNER. She was born in Huntsville, Alabama, September 4, 1838, and they are the parents of one son and one daughter, born; Emma May, August 16, 1880; John Franklin, August 26, 1881. H. L. and W. W. WYSOR, brothers of Joseph C., in the spring of 1863, at the ages of sixteen and fifteen years respectively, entered the service of the Confederacy, as members of the provost guards at Dublin. H. L. was commissioned Lieutenant. Benjamin Franklin WYSOR, father of these boys, was a member of the Virginia convention passing the ordinance of secession February 13, 1861. He studied law at the University of Virginia, graduated with honor, and entered into practice at Newbern, where he continued to his death. He was a member of the convention that framed the State constitution, in 1850 and a man foremost in the interests of the county. He engaged in the battle of Cloyd Mountain, May 12, 1864, not as a soldier but as a citizen defending his country, as a man fighting for the protection of home, and he died of wounds received at Newbern by a detachment of Federal troops, his death occurring two weeks later, on the 26th of May, 1864. Joseph Cloyd WYSOR commenced the study of law in 1877, and was admitted to the bar of Virginia in 1878. He was elected commonwealth attorney May 22, 1879, and re-elected May 24, 1883, and still holds the office, with address at Newbern, Pulaski county, Virginia.
