In John C. Hammock, "With honor untarnished;" the story of the First Arkansas Infantry Regiment, Confederate States Army. [Little Rock, Ark., Pioneer Press, 1961] E553.5 1st H3,

states that his sister took him home to McMinnville, and he died there. That is not too far from Murfreesboro. This would seem to confirm your account.

Since you said that he does not have a headstone if you will contact me by my e-mail link on this board the 1st Arkansas Infantry Company "D" "Clan McGregor" will see what we can arrange.
