Census records for Polk County, Arkansas show child "John H." (b. 1857 in Polk County) & Mary Malissa (b. July 1860 in Polk County, Arkansas) and John Walden II living w/ them as a farmhand. John Walden II is her step-brother son of Parmelia Jane Walden Musgrave and Elisha Walden. Census shows his birth as being 1838 in TN. Elisha Young is also his Uncle and well as step-brother in law. They were drafted into the Civil war in Polk County, Arkansas as confederate soldiers, then later changed to Union. Both served in Dawson's 19th Arkansas Infantry in Company D.

Actual military record reads: "Walden, John, Pvt. - Age 23 Enlisted 25 Oct. 1861 at Polk County, Arkansas. John was captured 11 Jan 1863 at Arkansas Post, Arkansas and was sent to Military Prison at Camp Douglass, Illinois 8 Feb. 1863. He died April 14, 1863."

Arkansas Post was captured by William Tecumseh Sherman (who burned through the South), He also burned the post destroying many of the Confederate Records. Many of our family switched to the Union after the fall of Arkansas Post and many didn't. He is one who didn't.
