John,
Thanks, your two cents worth was just right; due to
your help, found him on the list of NC parolees as
4th Sgt Co I, 27th Ala Inf; had previously served as
Pvt, Co H, 57th Ala Inf; you are most likely correct
ref the Spanish American War service...thanks again.

Homer

Mark,
You can post him as buried Magnolia Cemetery, Opp
Avenue, Andalusia; m. Sibbie A, 1845-1908.
