May be the Abraham Belcher who later served in Union Home Guards. Died ca. 1875."
The 2nd VA SL was org. 12/62 and Co. G was an infantry company commanded by Capt. James Russell Cook. Home county for most of the men was Wyoming Co. and most men transferred to 45th VA Bn when the SL was disbanded in about May 1863. The entry from the roster, quoted above, is referring to the enlistment or transfer to the 45th BN because the SL had been disbanded by then..
Seven Belchers, all from KY, except Abraham and he was born there, served in four of the five VA State Lines. Two of his brothers (Ali Coon and George) served in the same SL and 45th Bn. Allen and Lewis also served in the VA State Lines and later served in the 45th BN. Parents are Bartley and Rachel Ramey Belche. Broadfoot only shows him as Abram for the 45th. HDS shows him as Abraham in the 45th, but does not show the State Line Units. The State lines were a state unit and not officially part of the Confederate Army which explains why Broadfoot does not show him. Neither is he shown in the muster roll roster for the State Line and the WV Home Guard. None of the several men to serve in the State Line are shown on the muster roster. He is shown for the 45th Btln as box 382, extraction 4 and record 2631. I have found no record to support the Union Home Guard entry. If this is so, it means that he switched sides late in the war which is highly possible for someone living in KY or WV. NFR.

Enlisted in the Wyoming Scouts and Minute Men as a Private in Captain Sanders Mullin's Company, but apparently never served because he hired John Rowe as his substitute on 6/3/64. The Abraham in the 2nd VA State Line and 45 VA, Confederate units, was from Wyoming County and could have been the same person because he had enlisted in those earlier.. He was age 33.

Born 12/17/1839 in KY. Possibly born in Tazewell County, Va. Moved to Webster Co. WV postwar Ali Belcher is listed as a Private in Company C, 45th Battalion Virginia Infantry under Lt. Colonel Henry M. Beckley. Company Commander was Captain James R. Cook. Ali's brothers, Abram and George are also listed in Company C. Source " Tattered Uniforms and Bright Bayonets" by Jack L. Dickenson. According to his service records Ali enlisted in the Confederate army on 18 May 186_ . The year was not given. Ali's records are brief, listing him on April 1, 1864 as being absent without leave since 15 December. Source: National Archives.
He is listed as Alx on Broadfoot and Alex on the muster roll roster for the 45th Battalion. His muster roll is box 382, extraction 4 and record 2635. Neither roster lists him for the State Line. That data taken from the regimental history.
Ali Belcher served first in theWV Wyoming Scouts, A Union Home Guard. Captain Sanders Mullin's company which served starting 12/25/62 for one year. Ali's older brother Abram Belcher was also a member of this unit.
However, he was not the Ali Belcher who served in the Kanawha County State Guard. This Ali Belcher was the son of John Belcher of Campbells Creek. John Belcher was a half-brother to Bartley Belcher.
"Was said to be the meanest man who ever lived. He once came home when it was cold and the fire in the stove had gone out. He got so mad he kicked the stove over. Another time he couldn't get his horse to go down hill and he got so mad he literally pushed the horse down the hill."

The 1st VA SL was organized in the latter part of 1862. The officers for Co. I were sworn in on 8/26/62 with Captain John Buchanan as Commander. Many of the men came from Logan Co.
Not on Broadfoot roster or muster roll roster for SL, but in unit roster. None of those who served in the SL is noted in Broadfoot nor muster roll. The State Line units seem to be neglected and not receive as much recognitions as the militias and reserves. They were not considered a Confederate Army unit, rather unique partisan units responsible to the VA governor. Six Belchers served in the SLs with two in the 1st (Allen and Lewis). They both enlisted in the 45th BN VA Inf. His muster roll for the 45th is box 382, extraction 4, and record 2634. NFR.
If he was Allen M., he would be the son of Isham, III and Rebecca Bailey. May be Allen L., born abt. 1836, son of Asa and Clarissa Ann Milberry.

Note: Sorting out the Amos Belcher of the PA Heavy Artillery is a problem. There seems to be two people, Amos and Amos A. Per HDS, Amos A. enl. in 2 PA HA, co. a Private on 2/29/64 and the date out is unknown. HDS does not have a roster for the 2 PA HA Provisional which was in existence until it was consolidated with the 2 HA 8/64. Not sure when the Provisional unit was organized and HDS does not list the Veteran Reserve Corps. Broadfoot list him in both the 2nd HA units, but not the VRC. The muster roll roster has three entries. The name is Amos on the 2nd HA Provisional with note of co. 55 VRC and box 554, extraction 7, and record 2378. Name is Amos on the VRC with note of 2nd HA, box 636, extraction 3, and record 676. Name is Amos A. on the 2nd HA with note to 2nd Prov. HA and box554, extraction 7 and record 2377.
No details on what may have caused him to go into the Veteran Reserve Corps. This unit accepted men who were unfit for normal military duty, but could still provide useful service. A look at some of the statistics for the 2nd PA HA might give some insight. This regiment organized 1/8/62 at Camden, NJ and mustered out 1/29/66 at City Point, VA. During this period 4,705 men served in the unit, which tends to show they suffered high casualties along the way. The Officers seemed to fare rather well in that only 5 were KIA/MW and 5 DOD. For the enlisted it was another story, 221 were KIA/MW and 385 DOD. Don't have the numbers on the wounded and disabled and POWs which I am sure must have been rather high. NFR.

This Amos also creates problems, but I do believe he is a different person. Broadfoot list an Amos in the 5th PA HA and the 6th PA HA. Muster roll roster only lists the three noted above and none for either of these units. HDS shows Amos in Battery C, 6th PA HA 9/2/64, when he enlisted as a Private. He mustered out as a Corporal at Fort Ethan Allen, VA, 6/13/65. He was promoted to Corporal 1/1/65. During the short time of its existence, the unit seemed to have a relatively easy time regarding casualties. 1,990 men served in the unit, but 0 Officers were KIA/MW or DOD. The enlisted men lost 2 KIA/MW and only 4 DOD.
