Barbara,

NPS means National Park Service - Civil War Soldiers and Sailors System.

Go to: www.itd.nps.gov/cwss
Enter the following in "Soldiers" category:
Last Name: Borden
First Name: leave blank
Union or Confederate: Confederate
State: Texas
Function: Cavalry
Submit
You can find everyone named Borden, their unit and unit history.

Sidney Gail Borden (1846-1908) was the nephew of Gail Borden, Jr. I cannot find S.G. Borden in the NPS-CWSSS but I have notes that indicates he was in Capt. A.C. Jones' Company, Col. Spruce Baird's and Lt. Col. Daniel Showalter's 4th Texas Cavalry Regiment. He enlisted in south Texas at the age of 19 near the end of war so that may be the reason his is not listed in the muster roll.

Milam Borden enlisted in Col.John S. Ford's and Lt. Col. Edwin Waller, Jr.'s 2nd Texas Cavalry Regiment and served also along the Rio Grande.

It seems all the Bordens served in south Texas regiments during the war.
