Meredith Hugh Ellison was also my great grandfather. I'm not sure he and his father Clab Ellison enlisted from Texas. My grandmother, Alpha Ellison, thought they went back to Mississippi to enlist. I thought our aunt, Linnet Lawrence, had indicated the same thing. She knew that George had been killed at Iuka and was buried there.

Thank you, Mr. Nolan, for your information and the link to the picture of George's grave.
