You may want to glance again at the study that I did on your "13 Bone Brothers" that can be found in the thread on this message board listed as:

Please let me know if you learn that these two "John W. Bone" service records belong to two different gents.

Quoting:
The service records for CPT John W Bone overlap in a way that makes me think there were 2 separate individuals:
.
One in the Tx State Troops, 2nd Cavalry and Terry's Regiment, where the last record has him under arrest in Austin, March 1865.
.
The other was The leader of Cpt Bone's Unattached Company and in Bourland's Regiment. His last record is Oct 1864, present in Cpt. Bone's Co.
.
Census and genealogy seem to indicate this is possible.
.
Identical name, grade, and region? Mere coincidence or....

Anybody have any ideas on this?
