15th Texas Cavalry

Joseph Robert Williams from Tyler enlisted in second company "D" 15th Texas Infantry on October 15, 1861. He was initially a second Lieutenant, but was not reelected when the regiment reorganized in March 1862, so he reverted to a private. He died February 8, 1863 in Arkansas. One note reflects "near Ft. Smith" and another says "near Little Rock."

Technically, this company started out as "F" in Bates Regiment but was transferred to the 15th Infantry in March 1862.

Would anyone have any information on locating CS burials in either of these two locations, short of looking for needles in haystacks?
