The following is an autobiographical sketch he wrote of his war experiences:
Edna, Texas.--Born July 29, 1832, near Vicksburg, Miss. Enlisted in the Confederate Army in the Spring of 1861, at Columbus, Texas, as private in Company I, Terry's Texas Rangers, Eighth Cavalry, Independent Scouts, Army of Tennessee. My first Captain was Jones and first Colonel, Terry. On April 6, 1862, early in the morning at Shiloh in a charge I had fired once and just about to fire the second shot when a minie ball struck me on the wrist and went up the arm and then into my side, striking a rib it passed round and was cut out at the spinal column. I was never promoted. Served as quartermaster with rank of Captain, but did not care for the honor. I went into the ranks at will. Was in the battles of Shiloh, Bardstown, Perryville, Murfreesboro and others. Was always ready when scouts were needed. After being wounded I was sent to the hospital at Corinth, where I was put in the care of the Sisters of Charity and received the best of treatment. After I had somewhat recovered I went to my uncle's in Warren County, where I remained under treatment four months. After my wounds had healed I found that my wrist was stiff. I spent many hours working my fingers in an effort to regain their use.
In August I returned to my command and they were just going into Kentucky. Gen. Harrison insisted that I take a discharge on account of disability, but I refused and he gave me a broken down horse and I went with them. When the cold weather came on I found I could not stand it and he gave me a place in the commissary department, in which capacity I served, going into skirmishes and raids when possible.
In the winter of '63 and '64 we were camped at Missionary Ridge, fighting all winter. In the spring we went to Atlanta, after which we did some hard fighting in an effort to reach Gen. Lee. The news of his surrender reached us at Raleigh, N. C. Here we remained six days and then went to Winchester, where we surrendered.
Terry's Rangers started out with 1,100 men and were several times recruited and always from the Lone Star State, but when I issued the last rations we numbered, rank and file, 340 men. I had lost my horse and had to walk to Montgomery where we got a boat to New Orleans and from there to Texas. When I arrived home I found my earthly possessions reduced to 1,500 sheep.

This contemporary biographical sketch of Capt. Joseph Boisseau does not cite a source. It is graciously shared by Lee Jacobson, a direct descendant who is researching his Boisseau line.
Capt. Joseph Boisseau, a cotton planter and factor, and owner and dealer in real estate in Shreveport, La., has in his veins the blood of the old French Huguenots who came to this country on account of their religious belief, taking up their abode in the State of Virginia. Capt. Boisseau was born in Dinwiddie County, VA., January 23, 1829, to Joseph and Julia (Rives ) Boisseau, who were also Virginians, the father being an honest and fairly successful tiller of the soil. In the winter of 1848 he moved to Harrison County, Tex., and continued to make his home in the Lone Star State until his death, which occurred about 1868. After this event his widow removed to Louisiana and here she passed from life in 1874, having borne a family of eight children, five of whom are living: Mrs. Ann E. Jones, Capt. Joseph, Mrs. Mary Tucker, William and James. Capt. Joseph Boisseau was reared principally in the State of Tennessee, his early days being spent on his father's plantation, and in that State his early education was acquired. In September, 1849, he came to Shreveport, La., and secured employment as a clerk in a warehouse, being engaged in billing and shipping, his employer being E. C. Hart (now deceased). He remained with him until 1853, then began steam boating on the Upper Red River and down to New Orleans, and in time became commander of the steamers "Marion," "Newsboy" and "Trent". he continued to follow this calling with fair success until 1861, then enlisted in the First Louisiana Regiment of Caddo Rifles, and served the cause he espoused faithfully until November of that year, when he put in a substitute and went to New Orleans and purchased the steamer "Trent", expecting the blockade to be raised, and fitted her up for that purpose. The blockade failing, he ran his boat in the service of the Confederate government until sometime in 1863, when he sold the "Trent", and was afterward appointed by Jefferson Davis as pilot of the gunboat "Missouri", which had been built at Shreveport. This boat he took to Alexandria, to defend the forts at that place, and was there kept until the final surrender, the Captain receiving his parole on this boat. He then became pilot of the steamer "Cotton", that took the generals in command of the trans-Mississippi Department to the mouth of Red River, where the final terms of surrender were made, their names being Buckner, Price, Maj. Means and Lt. Carter. After surrendering, the boat "Cotton" was given up to the Federal officers at Shreveport. Capt. Boisseau then returned to Shreveport, La., and embarked in the wholesale grocery and cotton business, the firm of Walsh & Boisseau became sole proprietor, and as such has since continued. He has seen Shreveport grow from a village to its present admirable proportions, and he has always identified himself with its interests in every way. he owns about 6,000 acres of fine farming land, controls as much more, and is the owner of some valuable business buildings in the city, which are located on Front and Milan Streets, and several choice residence lots, which he offers for sale on the most reasonable terms. He is one of the heaviest tax-payers in the city, is doing well in every enterprise in which he is engaged, and is one of the substantial and honored citizens of this section, for he is public spirited, upright in every worthy particular, and is kind, generous and manly at all times. He has never been an aspirant for office, but has paid strict attention to the details of his business, and as a result, is one of the wealthy men of this section. He is a member and director of the Cotton Exchange, and is also one of the directors of the Commercial National Bank. He was married in 1866 to Miss Josephine E. Boisseau, of Virginia, by whom he has a family of four sons and three daughters: Joseph, Jr., Nettie P., Elizabeth S., Richie W., James H., Richard W. and Robert C. Mrs. Boisseau is a worthy member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and socially he belongs to the Masonic fraternity and the K. of P
The 1900 Census shows the couple have been married for 34 years. They have had 8 children with 7 living.
By 1850 he has relocated to Shreveport, Louisiana where he is found on the census roll living in the home of E. C. Hart. His occupation is listed as clerk. Although family records show the place of birth as Virginia, the 1850 census shows the place of birth as Tennessee.
