Son of Dr Lockwood Alison and his first wife, Jane Eliza Taylor.

Confederate States Army
The Civil War

Pension application by Mary, his wife, after Cusack's death reveals he served as Private in the Civil War, Louisiana Pelican Rifle Company Divisions; served until disabled, lost an eye, listed as a medical student and POW.

"The Journal" 3 Apr 1903 Mansfield, Louisiana, newspaper states that Cusack Alison, once a citizen of Kingston LA, died in Dallas 26 Mar 1903. A gallant Confederate soldier who lost an eye in one of many battles of his 2nd LA Infantry regiment.

Find A Grave shows headstone date different from death date in "The Journal" article and the Confederate Pension Application by Mary Ada Alison. Mary also states that Cusack had no middle name which makes one wonder where the "W" comes from. ~ notes by Nancy Idell Pittman, great granddaughter of Cusack Alison
