Thank you so much, Judith, for the local insight and additional information on the burial place of Fairfax Washington of the 38th Mississippi. That's precisely the kind of data we're short of ... have a lot of names, dates and locations that match up to potentially be right as candidates for burial at Shady Grove's "trench," but in most cases (unlike Mr. Washington's), there's not a lot of other documentation.

I sincerely hope Mrs. Barnes will allow you to carry all of her hard work forward.

Cordially, Chip Culpepper in Little Rock
