Trying to Research a Confederate Cavalry Soldier...


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I have had a local family see if I can find out any information whatsoever on the below person. They are looking for a photograph or any type of written information about him. I told them I would ask here on the forum for help. Anything you could give me would be great. I do not know how accurate the below info is, but I am writing it as it was given to me. Thanks!!!!
