Co. K, 3rd MO (Greene's) Cav. - which counties??

Hello -

did some reading in my CSA books (such as they are) last night.

I noticed there is a discrepancy upon what Sifakis and Crute say re where Greene's 3rd MO Cavalry was active.

I looks like Sifakis having Greene's 3rd MO Cavalry taking part in the Atlanta and Nashville campaigns is a mistake. Most sources seem to agree that Greene's 3rd MO Cavalry was active in the Trans-Mississippi and ultimately Price's 1864 raid of 1864.

Is there a Greene's 3rd MO Cavalry guru out there who can tell me which counties (both MO and AR) Co. K might have been recrutied from?

Also, how detailed are the CSRs for Greene's 3rd MO Cavalry; is there any chance they might gave age, home area, etc. or are they pretty sketchy in nature???

Oh yeah, almost forgot -- did Colton Greene REALLY look like Josef Stalin ???????

:-)

thanks again,

y.v.o.s.,

Kenneth Byrd
