Confederate Sons OF Hezekiah Byrd

Looking for info on the sons of Hezekiah Byrd, after looking through the potential camp members Geneology. I see more sons of Hezekiah Byrd who served

MALACHI G (MALLY) BYRD, b. April 03, 1827, Greene County, Ms; d. November 05, 1889, Greene County, Ms. v. EZEKIEL BYRD, b. 1831.

MICHAEL K BYRD, b. September 14, 1834; d. 1891.

a EW Byrd listed on the MS confederate Graves Registry as being born in Perry County is the son of Josiah Byrd SR his birthplace is in error, as he was born in Greene County. His full name is Edward Washington Byrd , Michael is listed on the MS confederate Graves Registry as Mikes for some reason. So far i have identified Malachi, Michael, Edward, Josiah, Bartelet, and JOHN A J5 BYRD, JR, b. 1845, and possible Charles b. Abt. 1838, Greene County, Ms. I say possible as he is Burried in Oak Wood Conf. Mound Cook, Chicago, IL and i cant find much info him or his brother James Born 1840 who it is rumered was also a soldier

Looking for all Confederate Soldiers in this line and any info on them, this Byrd Line Was a strong Confederate Family
