I am beginning to wonder if William Carroll, living in the household of Moses and Cellas Gullick in the 1850 Lafayette County census and "next door neighbor" to the couple in the 1860 Tippah County census, did not take the last name Gullick out of respect for his stepfather, or was accidentally named Gullick when he enlisted and kept it. The cemetery where your grandfather is buried is extremely close to the nearly "four corners" county lines of Marshall, Lafayette, Tippah, and Pontotoc counties met in 1860. (It isn't exactly "four corners", but only a couple of miles between the Tippah/Pontotoc line and the Tallahatchie River which was the line between Marshall and Lafayette)

Today, people living within a few miles of the Lafayette County line consider themselves more related to Union County than Lafayette, as they are closer to New Albany than Oxford. I know a number of people living in this area today. Looking at the map below, the Union Hill cemetery would be in the vicinity of the intersection of Marshall, Tippah, and Pontotoc county. Oxford is the dot near the center of Lafayette County, and if you look at the Tallahatchie (Tullahatchie on the map), it forks in Pontotoc County. New Albany is located on the north fork (called "Little Tallatchie River") just below the Tippah County line.

To add to the rest of it, somewhere, but I can't remember where, (lots of company during Christmas made me forget where I was on this in Dec), Company F was recruited at "Tacaleeche", an extinct town that is in this area just across the Marshall County line. It would have been the only company formed specifically in this area.

Looking at the "W. Carroll"s in the S and S, there really aren't any likely possibilities for the aforementioned William Carroll, who was appx 20 years old in 1860. Well, William J Carroll was in Co C, 27th Mississippi Infantry, which was formed not too far outside of the area of concern, maybe 18 or so miles in the opposite direction.

Anyway, I've been pretty busy, and changed departments where I work, and have been pretty beat in the evenings, but I am still thinking about him.
