William J. Yelverton, Confederate soldier

Does anyone out there know anything about the death and burial place of William J. Yelverton? He was a private in Company A, 4th Mississippi Cavalry. He was born May 5, 1848, in Mississippi, and was married to Sarah Victoria Shivers on Nov. 5, 1880, in Simpson County, Mississippi. He was living in Wynnewood at least as late as December 12, 1906. He had bought a cemetery plot at Oaklawn Cemetery, but there is no record of anyone named Yelverton having been buried in the plot. All we know about him may be viewed at our website.
