Capt. Bissett's Men -- additional info

In the other thread we discussed Hamp "Babe" Watts referring to Bissett's men and naming a few by surname -- Brown, Bisfield, Roberts, with two others of the six having unknown names.

John Newman Edwards in Noted Guerrillas mentioned a few names too -- Bissett, Brown, McMacane, and Thomas Fulton.

In Branded as Rebels Eakin and Hale referred to the McMacane as Patrick McMahan.

Bruce Nichols thought Babe Watts' "Brown" was Harvey Brown. He also thought McMahan might be Irishman Patrick "Sandy" McMahon or McMahan listed in the household of James Mullinaw in Jackson County in 1860, and thought "Bisfield" was 12-year-old James Biswell in the 1860 Howard County household of Chilton Biswell.
