The real George M.D. Street

In this, our Sesquicentennial of the Civil War, I feel it necessary to identify a significant error in my ancestors reference of birth, death and burial location found on the rolls for the 34th Mississippi Infantry Regiment. I have found this referenced both on line and in books such as the wonderful publication "Honor Without A Stain" by David Boone. The information picked up on these records, are actually those for his cousin George M. Street of Benton MS. The correct information for George M.D. Street, who served with the 34th, should be that he was born Feb 25, 1845 in Tippah County, MS and died Aug 9, 1923 in Wapanucka, OK. He enlisted as a Confederate Soldier with the 34th Mississippi Infantry, Company G (Sons of Liberty), together with his father Joseph J. Street, on Mar 17,1862. George M.D. Street is buried at Rose Hill Cemetery, Wapanucka, Johnston County, Oklahoma.
