Did not find is name with Rainey's Anderson County Invincible. Did find that Camp Crump was in Marion County, nothing more.

Having traveled 139 miles to get to Camp Crump might give you a clue if you know his home.

A. R. Bowen, age 30, 2nd Corporal, Capt. W. G. W. Jowers' Company, Crump's Battalion Mounted Volunteers,* enlisted November 4, 1861 at Camp Crump by W. G. W. Jowers for 12 months, value of horse $110, equipments, $25, traveled 139 miles to rendezvous, relived as 2nd Corporal May 8, 1862, reduced to ranks, recorded on the Sept. & Oct., 1862 and December 31, 1862 muster rolls as absent, in hospital, Knoxville, Tenn, no further records

Note: He must have been dropped from the rolls as his name is not recorded on subsequent muster rolls. This could have been for disability, discharge, death, capture, desertion, transfer, etc.

* This company subsequently became Company F, 32nd Regiment Texas Cavalry [15th Texas Cavalry, Crump's Battalion Mounted Vols.]
