Frank, the two "Arkansas, Miscellaneous" rolls are a grab-bag of individual records. They include soldiers whose unit is unidentified, and soldiers from units with too few records to justify a separate roll.
Just off the top of my head, I recall some officer appointments and status reports; quartermaster and commissary receipts; POW and parole records; and the like.
Roll 255 contains surnames A-I; Roll 256 contains surnames J-Y.
