Zachariah Gardner was born 15 Aug 1829 in MS and died 14 Jan 1917 at Pauls Valley, Garvin Co. OK. He is buried in Oaklawn Cemtery at Wynnewood, Garvin Co. OK.

It is said he was a Private in Co A Caddo Indian Bn CSA. Another source says he served in a Chickasaw BN. However, the 1910 census identifies him as 1/2 Choctaw Indian.

Can anyone verify his service record?

Thanks,
