Message Board Post:

Francis Marion Butler was a Confederate veteran. He was born in Carroll County, TN in 1844, the son of Marvel and Emily Spoon Butler. After the Civil War, he relocated at some point to Dallas County, AR. He died in 1898. I am seeking information on him or any of his children that lived in the area. I am also seeking a grave location, death notice and so forth.

Francis enlisted in 1861 and was a member of J.K. Pearce's Company H of the 55th Regiment of TN Infanty, CSA.

I am willing and prepared to come to Fordyce or any local town to follow up on research on this family if there are viable sources locally, such as old newspapers, birth and death records and so forth that can be examined on hand in that area.

Thanks,

Bob
