Linda, just as a matter of interest, some 20 or more years ago, someone sent me a copy of a page from a document titled "Minute-Book of the Military Board of the State of Arkansas," which listed the appointments of colonels for the 44th-45th-46th-47th-48th Arkansas Mounted Infantry. I have no idea of where the original is, or even if the page I received is all that's left of it. I'd give anything to get my mitts on the entire document.
