Bosque County

William R. Sedberry
from Bosque County
b. 1823
family records state that he served in the CSA and he is buried in Little Rock 1863

I found a historial marker at Rondo Cemetery, Rondo, Miller County AR that reads

Texas CSA
Camp Josephine McDermott
Rondo, Arkansas
Major Gen John G. Walker's Division, Greyhounds,
Texas Volunteer Infantry from Northeast Texas;
Brig Gen Henry E. McCulloch's Brigade;
Nineteenth Regiment;
Col. Richard Waterhouse, Jr. Commanding;
The First Battalion left Jefferson Texas Aug 8, 1862, arriving here Aug 16 and were encamped until Oct. 2. The Texans rested here briefly enroute to intercept Federal troops advancing on Little Rock with orders to capture Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas. The majority of Texans buried here died during a measles epidemic. Some of their names are unknown. High mortality is known to have occurred in Capt. H. A. Wallace's Company H. Second Battalion.
end of marker

The soldiers database has William R. Sedberry listed as
15 Texas Infantry Company K
M227 roll 32

I don't know yet if this is the correct William R. Sedberry. One place I found the 15th Texas Infantry was from Navarro County.

There is a listing at Rondo Cemetery, for Wm Sedberry. died Oct 15, 1862. Could this be my William R. Sedberry.

I would appreciate any comments or help in my research.
