Jesse Hood Bulloch

This picture of Jessie Hood Bulloch,was probably taken in the 1870's. He is the brother to our Cyprian Bulloch, Jr and Benjamin F Bulloch. While his brothers remained in Meriwether County, Jesse Hood Bulloch moved west.

Jesse Hood Bulloch was born November 21, 1841, in Meriwether County, Georgia. He Married Mary Ann Parkman on September 12, 1865 after returning from service with the Confederate States Army. Jesse enlisted March 4, 1862 in Greenville, Meriwether County, Georgia, and arrived for a brief training period at Camp McDonald, Big Shanty, in Cobb County, Georgia. He was assigned to Company F., 41st Georgia Infantry Regiment, CSA. Jesse saw combat action first at the battle of Perryville, in the Kentucky campaign, in which he was wounded. The records do not specify details of the wounds. He was with his regiment at the surrender of Vicksburg, where he was parolled and sent to Demopolis, Alabama, where he was "exchanged". He joined with the 41st Regiment in November just in time to take part in the Battle of Missionary Ridge, Chattanooga campaign. Jesse fought with the Army of Tennessee through the battles of Nashville, Tennessee, and Bentonville, NC, until the surrender on April 26, 1865. After the war Jesse returned to Meriwether County, where he was married five months later.




Jesse Hood Bulloch died April 3, 1934 at home. He is buried in the family cemetery located on Judson Bulloch Road, Manchester, Georgia.

  1. Interesting blog. I have always thought that the two brothers were Ben F. and Cyprian Jr. Jesse, as you say, is pictured in the second photo. Notice the tattered contition of his suit, an indication of his financial situation during reconstruction.

  2. It was only recently that the photo was forwarded to me with the notation that it was of Jesse Hood and Cyprian. Were you already familiar with the photo and did you have addtional information? I want to post correct information.

    Ben and Cyprian were in business together with their cousin; so your comment makes sense.

  3. Hello - I found your site as I was doing some research on my family history. My name is Karen Ross from Jacksonville, Flroida and I am Jesse Hood Bulloch's Great Grand-Daughter. My Mother, Lorene Anderson (formerly Bulloch) was John Lucius and Adele Bulloch's only daughter. My mother has lost touch with her family over the years and I am trying to find some relatives and to get in touch with. I would love to connect with you to find out how we might be related.
