Ms. Howard,
How are you defining "Civil War Papers?"
Did he serve in the War Between the States?
Do you know the circumstances of his death?
Where did he appear in the 1860 Census?
Did he serve for the Confederacy or the Federal government?
These questions allow us to narrow our search of resources considerable and eliminate multiple name matches.
Thanks, respectfully,
Gerald D. Hodge, Jr.
