The previous owner served as an Assistant Adjutant General under Samuel Cooper from 1863 to the end of the war. From Find A grave dot com taken from the Biography of Eminent Men of the Carolinas: Samuel Wickiff (how it is spelled in the obit) Melton was born in Yorkville, S. C., February 7, 183? (hard to read). Receiving his early education in Yorkville he graduated from the South Carolina college in the class of 1852. He edited the Chester Standard, published in Chester, in 1852 and 1854. Then he returned to Yorkville and established the Yorkville Examiner on January 1, 1855, running it until 1858, when he sold out to Lewis M. Grist. In the meantime, in 1857, he was admitted to the bar and commenced the practice of law with his brother, C. D. Melton, at Chester, continuing until the war broke out. He enlisted in the Confederate army in 1861, on the staff of Gen. M L. Bonham, as aid-de-camp, accompanying him to Virginia, remaining with him until after the first battle of Bull Run. Subsequently he went on the staff of Maj. Gen. Gustavius W. Smith, commanding the Second corps, he having the rank of major. He remained with Gen. Smith until February, 1863, and was then assigned to duty in the office of the adjutant and inspector general of the Confederate army, at Richmond, where he remained until the close of the war. He was in the first battle of Bull Run, in the Peninsular campaign, in the battles around Richmond, at Seven Pines, the campaign in 1863 in North Carolina, and temporarily on the staff of Gen. Beauregard at the battle of Drury's Bluff. The chief duties, however, from early in 1862 to the close of the war were in the adjutant general's office, in Richmond.
