Using what Bryan just posted, this means that more than likely, Darden fought at Helena.
Then back down to Little Rock on the old Military/Brownsville Rd(now in Lonoke County)
back to outside of Little Rock where they were under Gen. Price and on into southern Arkansas
They surrended at the end down in Texas with Kirby Smith is what I have been told.
I know my relative walked home from the war but I am unsure of his location when
he started this journey.
There is a history of the 36th which was the master's thesis several years back for a military
man, a Price, but not one of mine, whose ancestor had fought with the 36th. I lost his e-mail
during a melt down of the previous computer. But it is at the Butler Center.
If this man is buried in a marked grave in White County, then he is probably on that list
of the Civil War veterans that the White County Historical Society published in 2009
that is now listed at the front of their site.
My ancestor, Sgt. Pleas Loyd, who was with the 36th, came back, and died soon afterward.
He also signed up at Springfield and what I have told you is basically all I know.
There was no money for anything so he is buried somewhere in White County in an
unmarked grave, I believe.
I always post some of this when anyone says the 36th simply because I would like to learn more.
