Jay, you might want to take a look at the Independence County Chronicle.

1986 - April - July
Fagg, Dr. Jane. “Boys in Blue,” 24-47.
Gregory, Terry. “4th Arkansas Mounted Infantry,” 48-69.

1989 - April
“Boys in Blue, Part III,” 20-35.
Fagg, Dr. Jane. “Two Disabled Veterans,” 2-12.
Fagg, Dr. Jane. “Conclusion: Who Were the Union Soldiers?” 24-33

Also somewhere around the time these articles were written is Gary Perkey's article on my relatives, but it was missed when the index for the Chronicle was compiled.
